Definition: Ananas, meaning "stork," refers to a large bird in Greek mythology. It's often used metaphorically to describe someone who's not known for being kind or generous, but they have great potential for growth or success. The term has been translated into various languages and is a play on words like 'sarcasm' (which also means "smiling" - meaning sarcasm), which can be likened to a stork spreading its wings in an ironic gesture of kindness that may not actually show much.
