Kambodjanska ordspråk

Här är några khmer-ordspråk på engelska och ja, ni får själva fundera ut vad de betyder ;)


Don't make heaven your seat

Don't plant rise on the track of the elephants

Rather be swallowed by the crocodile than harrased by the small fish

Don't share the table with a madman: breaking wood, don't compete with an elephant

Don't entrust ants with sugar

Don't argue with a woman, don't trade with a government official, don't begin a lawsuit with a chinese

A widow with one child is like a virgin; a widow with three children is like an old maid

Dong dong - like a drum

When you are hungry, don't eat in a hurry

In order to reach Nirvana, you must train your spirit; before entering a dark place you have to look for a lantern

You want to learn, pretend to be ignorant

Ten knowing are not worth one practising

If you catch him, don't step on his heels

He dies as a snake, he lived like a frog

If you are nasty, be it so that one respects you; if you are stupid, be it so that feels compasion for you

Ask the eel to search the mud
 
Som avslutning ska jag ge er mitt absoluta favoritordspråk och jag ser gärna att ni gör en tolkning för jag har ingen aning haha!

The fig was eaten by the squirrel, got stuck in the throat of the duck and harmed the bottom of a the deer.
