木この葉はを隠かくすなら森もりの中なか

expression

hide a leaf in a forest

Proverb meaning the best way to hide something is to place it among similar things, making it inconspicuous.

• 木この葉はを隠かくすなら森もりの中なかというように、小ちいさな嘘うそも大おおきな話はなしの中なかに紛まぎれ込こませればバレにくい。

  As the saying goes, 'If you want to hide a leaf, put it in a forest' — even a small lie is hard to detect if you mix it into a big story.
