# For example, if a man goes into the forest ... to cut wood
|
||
|
|
||
|
The author gives a hypothetical situation where a person accidentally kills another person. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hypo]])
|
||
|
|
||
|
# the ax head slips off of the handle
|
||
|
|
||
|
The iron part of the ax comes off the wooden handle.
|
||
|
|
||
|
# strikes his neighbor and kills him
|
||
|
|
||
|
This means the head of the ax hits and kills the neighbor.
|
||
|
|
||
|
# to one of these cities and save his life
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is implied that the family of the dead man may try to get revenge. The man who killed him can flee to one of these cities, and the people there would protect him. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
