Greetings Hivers, @justinparke here with a brand new ASEAN Hive Community Challenge for you all, even non-Southeast Asian Hivers, 👵 Local Proverbs/Folk Sayings 👴.
👵 Local Proverbs/Folk Sayings 👴
👨💻 Week #25 Challenge 👩💻
September 12th ➡️ September 19th, 2022This week's challenge should be a lot of fun because I like learning about other cultures through food and proverbs. We've already done a lot of food-related challenges, but haven't yet done a proverb challenge. Folk sayings, expressions, and local proverbs are all welcome in this week's challenge. We don't often think much about the proverbs we quote often in day-to-day life, but these expressions vary widely from country to country, and also among different religions, cultures, and linguistic groups.
Share one or many, perhaps the expression in your local language, a translation to English, and of course the meaning behind the expression, because it may not be clear for someone from your area. My history is mostly in the USA and Cambodia, so I will leave a few here as an example.
USA
"Strike while the iron is hot."
Meaning: a call to act quickly when a good opportunity is presented to you.
Cambodia - by @Srey-Yuu
"ចំណេះជាអាហារ ប្រាជ្ញាជាអាវុធ."
"Knowledge is food, wisdom is a weapon."
Meaning: knowledge and wisdom will never fail you.
Some creativity will be required to add relevant images to your post, but I am sure you ASEAN Hivers are up to the challenge. Feel free to add things to your post such as when you first heard the proverb, or perhaps even share certain proverbs that certain family members always say, etc.
Week #24 ASEAN Hive Challenge Winners
🏓♟️ Tabletop Games 🎲🎴
🏓♟️ Tabletop Games 🎲🎴
I wasn't sure if this challenge was going to be a hit or not. After all, tabletop games are a little more common in the west than they are in Southeast Asia. I wish I had found time to share some of the games we've collected over the years. There were only two entries for this challenge, but both of them were outstanding posts, so I split the 3rd prize between the two winners. Go ahead and have a look, there were quite a few games I was unfamiliar with.
