Having no effect on someone.
文化背景
In Latvian rural traditions, ducks were common farm animals. The observation of their waterproof nature was a part of daily life, making this idiom very relatable to the common person. Similar idioms exist across the Baltics, reflecting a shared agrarian history and a common way of observing nature to explain human psychology. Even though most Latvians now live in cities, animal-based idioms remain the most popular way to express emotions, showing a strong linguistic link to the past. Classic authors like Rūdolfs Blaumanis often used nature metaphors to describe the stubbornness of Latvian peasants, cementing these phrases in the literary canon.
