Proverbs:
> Like the weathervane at Saipan
This is a new idiom, probably coming into the language as a result of changes in policy whereby Saipan, in the past couple of decades, has been in and out of the Trust Territory as administered by the Department of the Interior. Application is to the indecisive or changeable leader
More Examples:
> The ships that were burned is a message to the world not to mess with Belau.
> Tattoos were distinguished symbols from each family or clan.
