| a | , mod. | if; when. Also, used as a contentless word which precedes nouns and verbs under various conditions.
|
Examples: |
|
> The sun is shining so hard and she's at the farm with nothing on her head. |
|
> The amount of money has become more than the cost of the house. |
|
> How did you fall off the dock? |
|
> Whenever a spider has disappeared (from its web), I take it as a sign that there will be a big storm. |
|
> My love for you is boundless. |
|
Proverbs: |
|
> The repairing of the floor. The act of making amends before a grudge develops into open hostility. |
|
> He's like a good (lit. fast) top that steadies itself soon after touching the ground. i.e. he understands or learns quickly. In Palau the top is spun in the air and dropped to the ground where it usually wobbles for a spell before it becomes "planted" or stable. The better the top, the less the wobble. A statement that is right to the point, or a decisive and good decision, is like a good top. The idiom may be applied to a person who is quick to get the point or learn a new skill. |
|
> I receive it and you ask for it? A man asks for and receives that which he needs from a second party. A third party, learning of this, asks the first party for it. Used as implied or generally about any unreasonable request |
|
> Like a fish in deep, clear water, eaten only with the eyes. Fish are not easily caught in clear water. The idiom applies to that which may be admired but not obtained, like an expensive item or another man's beautiful sweetheart. |
|
> Fast is late. Hasty work can result in inadequate results and delays. |
|
More Examples: |
|
> What is the laughter about? |
|
> Your picture of the boat is very good. |
|
> The gecko kept chirping last night, I wonder what it meant. |
|
> Chewing betelnut was not allowed at school. |
|
> John has a reallly fast pitch. |
