Bangkiangne acekel gonda layu.
[example 1]

[example 2]
[proverb] Like a flower; when it is fragrant it is liked; when it is weak and wilted, it is thrown away. This is used, like the expression about the used banana leaf plate [see -tekor-] with reference to a girl used by a man. In this case the expression is more smooth because the implication is that the man uses the woman for a longer period of time than in the case of the banana leaf plate. It could, for example, apply to a man getting rid of his wife after she withers.
