Suba ada poh nasak.
[example 1]
The mango is already ripe.
Nasak duren; nasak manggis.
[example 2]
[proverb] Ripe durian; ripe mangosteen. This refers to men and women. If a durian is ripe, you can smell it from far away. Thus, if a boy know that there is a pretty girl somewhere, he will come to where she is and visit, etc., even though she may live far away. However a mangosteen has no odour until you open it. This is like a man. A woman does not go running after a man, supposedly.
