Sentences Example
Balinese
Buka nakep balange dadue; maka dadua leb.
English
Like catching two grasshoppers; both of them escape.

“Nakep” is to catch something with the cupped had. “Leb” means run away. The point here is that, in attempting to catch two grasshoppers, you may easily lose both of them. Whereas, it is not so hard to catch just one.

This is used to refer, generally, to the fact that, if you try to do too many things at once, you may not be able to do any of them. It is better to do just one thing at a time.
Indonesian
Seperti menangkap dua belalang; keduanya melarikan diri.

"Nakep" artinya menangkap sesuatu dengan kedua telapak tangan. "Leb" berarti melarikan diri. Intinya di sini adalah bahwa, dalam upaya menangkap dua belalang, Anda dapat dengan mudah kehilangan keduanya. Padahal, tidak sulit menangkap satu saja.

Ini digunakan untuk merujuk, secara umum, pada kenyataan bahwa, jika Anda mencoba melakukan terlalu banyak hal sekaligus, Anda mungkin tidak dapat melakukan semua itu. Lebih baik fokus melakukan satu hal pada waktu tertentu.
