Description:Translation (Rita Seng Mai) A long time ago, there were great hornbills in a forest. It took a long time for them to brood. So, the male great hornbill was getting tired to find food for his wife. Then, he asked a woodpecker for help. He said to the woodpecker, "My friend, help me finding food for my wife while she is brooding. When the eggs hatch, I will give you one of my children you want." The woodpecker said, "Okay then." He helped finding food for the female great hornbill. Then, it became the time for the eggs to hatch. And the female great hornbill lost almost all of her feathers since it took a long time in brooding. Her children grew up along with her. The feathers were regrown too. At that time, the male great hornbill thought, "Since I gave my word to the woodpecker, I should keep my promise." He showed his children to the woodpecker and said, "My friend, choose one from them." Then, the woodpecker looked at them thoroughly. When he found the most beautiful one, he pointed at her and said, "I want her." As soon as he showed the one he wanted, the great hornbill was shocked. And he said, "Oh! That's your sister-in-law!" The woodpecker was embarrassed. He made a sound like 'wet, wet, wet' and ran away from there. Since then, the woodpecker always produces a sound as 'wet, wet, wet'.
