Description: Translation (Rita Seng Mai) Once upon a time, there was a rabbit in a forest. It was a sunny day, and he was thirsty. He went to a stream to drink water every day. On that day, he saw a fallen tree in the water. He thought it wouldn't be usual because there was no heavy rain. He knew it would be a dragon. Then, he said, "Hey, a long and black thing in the stream! If you are a fallen tree, swim upstream. If you are a dragon, float through the stream." When he said like that, that object swam upstream. Then, the rabbit said, "Hhhh, you are a dragon. If that is a fallen tree, it couldn't swim upstream. It will just flow to the downstream area. You are a dragon." When he said that, the dragon was embarrassed. The rabbit didn't drink water and just went back. Then, the dragon thought of another plan to catch the rabbit. She quickly flew up to the sky and waited for the rabbit by digging a hole on his way back. And she hid there. Unfortunately, one leg of the rabbit fell into the hole. He thought, "It could be a dragon. She feels embarrassed because she couldn't catch me." Then, he said, "If you catch my leg, say umm, umm." Then, the dragon produced a sound like 'umm, umm'. The rabbit said, "Why do you say only 'umm, umm'? You even caught my leg. Say 'hhhhhh' then." She heard what the rabbit said and said, 'hhhhh'. At that moment, the rabbit quickly took his leg out of the dragon's mouth. He also pulled the dragon's tongue out and ran away. He hung the tongue on a tree and went back home. At home, he said to a cat, "Hey, there is a dragon's tongue hanging on a tree. Go and get it." The cat went out and searched for it. Surprisingly, the cat couldn't find that tree no matter how hard he tried. Actually, that dragon's tongue became a tree. That tree is called Indian trumpet, and the fruits are called Indian trumpet fruits (ndang dalim). We call it like that because the dragon's tongue looks like a boat shuttle (a boat shuttle is called dalim in Kachin language).
