RE: Die Blinde Sjambok (the blind whip)
Interesting message. We have the same proverb. "And a whip and a carrot." It is used if you want to make a person do something. Do not understand the good "gingerbread" then for a bad "whip"
Maybe gingerbread is a tasty reward whereas the whip is a fearful punishment. Good verses Bad consequences for actions chosen?
Yes gingerbread, not the right translation
