Shona Definition
Kazhinji munhu anombotanga achipa vanhu asi anozoona kuti vane tsinda zvino obva ofunga zvokuvanyima. Munhu pachake haana chakanaka. Kana ukamupa chinhu anototi chiramba uchindipa zvimwe zvinhu zvapachena.
English Translation
Giving comes first and withholding comes afterwards: a person who starts out open-handed is worn down by the greed and ingratitude of those he helps, and in the end turns mean.
