ENGLISH: TO PREPARE TO BEAT SORGHUM.

This proverb speaks of preparation of beating sorghum in order to remove them from their chaffs. Sorghum is a kind of millet which is hard to beat enough to separate it from its chaffs. However, when you start beating it, realize that you have begun to do real a hard work.

You have to be very patient because if you do not, you will leave that sorghum in its chaffs. That is why people tell each other that you have, “to prepare to beat sorghum.”

This proverb is equated to a man who has started a difficult task that takes a long time to complete, in his performance. Such person does his task, with great patience, because of his difficulty. He works hard to finish his works because of his perseverance, in his work.

This man is like the one a did a hard work of removing sorghum from chaffs by beating them for a long time in finishing his work, because he also does a lot of hard works that take a long time to finish. He teaches his fellows on how to carry out these difficult tasks until they complete them well. That is why he tells them to work hard by saying that they have, “to prepare to beat sorghum.”

This proverb instills in people an idea on having perseverance in carrying out their tasks by understanding them and taking good care of them until they finished them, so that they can find more success, in their works.
