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.

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.

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.

Not caused by anyone

like many parties

that talk about democracy

But there was only one person who ordered left to right.
