Read the following excerpt from a performance review.
kap26 [50]

Answer: To show that it is a metaphor and not literal

Explanation:

''Talk the hind legs of a donkey'' is having a meaning ''making a donkey sit down on its rear end'' which is not something that donkeys do naturally. It is used when we are describing a person who is talking to much. This phrase has its origins in Ireland.
