Kovayı suyla doldurdum.
- I filled the pail with water.
Ne kadar acele edersen et, çaban sadece kovada bir damla.
- No matter how much you hurry your effort is just a drop in the bucket.
Bana içinde yağ olan metal kovayı ver.
- Give me the metal bucket with the oil in it.
The milkmaid carried a pail of milk in each hand.
