There are those who need a message repeated to them over and over... and there are those who need to hear it just once. And there are others for whom the wink of an eye or half a statement is enough. The English expression goes, a word to the wise is sufficient.
Modern Hebrew borrows and adapts from an ancient Jewish Aramaic saying found in the Midrash on סֵפֶר מִשְׁלֵי - the Book of Proverbs (SEH-fehr meesh-LEH-ee).
The expression is דַּי לַחֲכִּימָא בִּרְמִיזָא (DAH-ee lah-khah-KEE-mah beer-MEE-zah). It means, literally, a hint is sufficient for the wise person.
