# a reproach to his neighbors
The abstract noun "reproach" may be translated using a verb. The metonymy speaks of the king as if he were the way that his neighbors react to him. Alternate translation: "someone whom his neighbors reproach" or "something that disgusts his neighbors" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-abstractnouns]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
