One of the metaphorical phrases that may be used in place of a noun, which is frequently made up of two hyphenated words, is a kenning. Examples of contemporary kennings include:1. A very young youngster is referred to as an ankle-bitter.2. An accountant or a CPA is referred to as a bean counter. Kennings are frequently linked to Anglo Saxon poetry.
A Kennings is made up of two components: a base word (sometimes called a head word) and a determinant. As an illustration, the kenning "ss raura randa" ('icicle of red shields' [SWORD], Einarr Sklason:
xarflokkr 9) has the base-word "ss" ('ice, icicle') and the referred determinant "rnd" ('rim, shield-rim, shield').
The item, person, place, or being that the kenning alludes to is referred to as its referent, and in this example, the referent is a sword.

Answer: she is trying to prove to him that women are better at keeping secrets then men
Explanation: She keeps the secret that she has been cheating on her husband for some time
The Wife of Bath's tale shows that women are not always able to keep secrets, just like men.
In The Wife of Bath's tale, she includes a side-story about King Midas from Greek mythology and his wife. The lesson she is trying to show about how women keep secrets is that women are not always able to keep secrets. In the story, King Midas' wife could not keep the secret that he had donkey ears, even though he explicitly told her not to tell anyone. This demonstrates that women, just like men, can struggle with keeping secrets.
