Duab Toj Siab -

In the Hmong language, certain phrases carry a weight that simple translation cannot convey. "Duab toj siab" is one such expression. While it literally translates to "picture" ( duab ) "mountain" ( toj ) "liver" ( siab ), to interpret it as a "picture of a mountain and a liver" would be to miss the profound cultural philosophy embedded within the words.
