LEARNING PALAUAN PROVERB: LESSON 101
PALAUAN PROVERB: "Kemeral di Medochii el Ruar"
"Ke meral di Medochii el Ruar" meaning "You knock it down/grab and Pick-Up". "Ke" is a pronoun "You", "meral" in this context is referred to as "Just" but can also be used in other phrases that refers to a word "True", "Exist", "Real". "di" is a conjunction word that connects "Ke meral" and "Medochii" to make one complete sentence, "Ke meral di Medochii" or You just grab/knock it off. It makes sense when it is said in Palauan rather then saying it in English. "Medochii", can mean "Grab" or "Knock Off/Down", "el" can be used as a conjunction or can be defined as "and", in this phrase "Ke meral di Medochii el Ruar", "el" means "and" that connects "Medochii" and "Ruar". "Ruar" means "Pick Up".
"Ke meral di Medochii el Ruar" relates to a "person who laughs at his own jokes."
