Examples:

> His family and the villagers were quite surprised at the boy's sudden good health and quick recovery.
> Here's Droteo.
> Ulang always mismanages her finances; she is always short when there is a need for her.
> He's just a child, so don't listen to what he says.
Proverbs:
> That man is like a duck.
The native duck, debar, doesn't fly very well, or high like other birds, it doesn't walk or run like some animals, it can't sing well, and it doesn't swim as well as a fish. But it can do all these things. Applied to a person who seemingly can do many different things, none of them expertly. "Jack of all trades."
More Examples:

> The seduction between them both was mutual.
> My American friend is learning Palauan.
> What is this person like?
> These old man's kids will be talked about at the conference next month.
