Examples:
> He's young and unexperienced (lit. his buttocks are covered with sores) and doesn't know anything.
> He's just a child, so don't listen to what he says.
> 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.
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:
> This person has a long nose.
> The baby had a serious recognition comparison by the ladies of the house.
> Ngerkumer, your husband is very nicely humble.
> This old man stayed stiff and contorted as he died.
> The crocodile and I had a snatching match for the crab in the channel.
