TOP DEFINITION
A charming term for a sunshower – when rain falls while the sun is shining. Widely used in SA English (from an old Afrikaans idiom "jakkals trou met wolf se vrou"), it describes this unlikely weather with a folksy image.
""It's a monkey's wedding outside – the sun's out, but I still got soaked in that quick rain," said Prisha, looking at the rainbow forming."
