English
Literally meaning: like stamping on the ground next to a cricket, referring to a person who may be very talkative when in a familiar environment, but who is very quiet and never says anything elsewhere; the reference is to the fact that if you stamp on the ground (keteb) near a cricket who is chirping, the cricket will stop making any sound.
