Katsig-katsig kan babo ta matsitsindêt kan lao.
Move up higher or you'll get poked with the rice pestle.
Two stories about this expression are the following: 1)Years ago, the people used to believe the heavens were low to the ground, so before they pounded rice they used to say, "Move up a little or you'll be poked with the rice pestle." 2)On an overcast day people used to say this if they had some place they wanted to hike to.
