Some Thai idioms, such as birds with ears, mice with wings Speak it out and imagine it. They are incompetent, only get it, just survive. But when it comes to rhetoric ...a ruthless bird Older people of my generation are still confused. what kind of person exactly
I came across this idiom in a book.
Sanoh Sanae Thai Rhetoric (Matichon, 2005) Ajarn Lom Pengkaew wrote about the political events in early 2002 (whose government?
Familiar)
At that time, newspaper headlines
senior civil servants in the Ministry of Commerce
and the Bank of Thailand
pull out of line
It is an exciting start to the year.
Interesting resignation, Mr. Adul Vinaiphat from the position of Deputy Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Commerce, a talented person, a good person who has another 5 years of service life.
“I assume that in the past, I have done it for the country.
for prestige

considered to be a charity
The virtue of merit inspired me to resign to work in the private sector.”
this interview
indicating dissatisfaction
Political power is very obvious.
Talented people, good people, can't stay, they have to decide to step aside. Ajarn Siem asks a question, how should it match Thai idioms?
“I think of an idiom called Bird without wood, which is an idiom that uses birds and wood as an analogy.
No bird is no bird. Cruel wood is evil wood, which means poisonous wood.
That bird naturally relies on wood as a nesting place.
There are many types of birds that rely on crops for food.
Therefore, there will be self-learning.
Any type of wood with toxic leaves or fruit is dangerous to live.
Authority can be compared to a tree.
If you have prestige, it's like a tree with you.
Without virtue, it's like a cruel stick, a poisonous stick. What good and skilled person would volunteer to use it?
only to be disgusted
and keep a distance
Ajarn Lom finished writing this chapter.
With the four polite poems of the ancients, read it for the first time in a row...
Big and small birds all over the country, Dan Dong, without joy, nests in the thickets, bushes and trees that fly down, lemla, cruel to the fruitless birds
Rebuild Rabin
enough to understand the similarities described by Ajarn Lom
But if you read another way, separate the next word for each baht.
You will get a thread of brutal woodless birds that can summarize the meaning more clearly.
I finished reading Teacher Lom's writing.
understood the meaning of this expression.
because originally
Still interpreting birds without skills, sometimes still thinking that it should be "bad birds, brutal wood", both birds are not good, wood is not good, more matching
Summarizing the newness as usual, both the birds and the wood...there's nothing bad.
Birds have a nature that finds trees that are both edible.
There are thick bushes.
which is called good wood used for nesting
When you find a fruitless tree to eat
The branches are sparse and the nest is unhappy.
It flew to another tree.
The part of the tree that does not bear fruit for the birds to eat.
There are no thickets to nest in.
It's not a bad stick anywhere.
is the nature of the wood
I intend to think like this.
because they don't want to use idioms
that is having news
Sucked by money flow, blood flowing out
Mr. Nipon Boonyamanee said it was a new blood transfusion.
when old people go
There is a new person instead.
Three southern provinces
Ever quit
then the consequences
That is, they all failed the exam.
I believe what Khun Niphon said...Democrat Party brands are still magical.
I also believe This party is almost a single political institution. that deflects the majority Win some, lose some Not caused by anyone like many parties that talk about democracy But there was only one person who ordered left to right.
