Thad kba u chrieh




Esra says:

This is an old narration of the Bhois which literally translates to "the monkey is drying his paddy".


It is used to describe a natural phenomenon wherein the sunbeams diverge through the clouds and fall focally on the hilltop; while the remaining areas are without sunshine and dark. This is when old people say, the monkey is drying his harvested paddy on that hilltop during this time.



"Thad kba u Chrieh" šŸµšŸµšŸŒ¾šŸŒ¾ sent by @esra_syiem šŸ˜ƒšŸ˜ƒ This is a Bhoi saying which is translated into the monkey is drying his paddy. As explained by Esra, this saying owes its origin to the natural phenomenon of the sun's rays hitting a specific area of a hilltop while other parts remain dark.
Thank you for another interesting entry! And as Esra says it's #justabhoithing šŸ˜„šŸ˜„
