Hullo Chitra Madam Nice set of proverbs. I have noticed that we, at home, dont use proverbs in speech. I think I should start it ! It would be so much more interesting and colourful ! (Have you seen the proverbs listed by Singai Krishnan in Tamilnation.org ? Regards Manjula
Dear Chithra, Lovely set of Proverbs in "Ka". Enjoyed all of them espaecially the one :son is a son till he get a wife, but daughter is a daughter till end of life. Truly true..now a days i dont see any parents crib for getting a female child just for this ................. Thanks chithra, Luv, Aishu
Dear Chitra, It is another good set of proverbs from you. I liked proverbs 4 and 15. still my chithi is a good friend to me. 15 is very true. A son can give a good care to the parents, but only daughter gives emotional support especially to the mother. This is what my mother says. Enjoyed reading all proverbs. regards, kodi.
Dear Chitra Madam, I love 15 very much. I am one of three sisters in my family. No sons. I know my parents longed for a son, they still do... this proverb is so true these days but I guess people are reluctant to face the music....even my parents.. here is one more proverb in ka(sorry i dont have tamil font) kal aanaalum kanavan pul aanaalum purushan.. regards, jothi.
My dear Manjureddy, Thankyou for joining us here. Ever since my childhood & later as well, proverbs have been a part of my life ! Even now , when I talk to my friends over the phone, quoting pazamozis is inevitable ! Since in general that habit is dying gradually, I started this thread more for everyone to know the vesataliy of tamil, even in regular conversation. Since I have a large collection myself, I don't look into the net for fear of being tempted to reproduce them here ! Love, Chithra. கலத்தில் இட்டுக் கையைப் பிடிக்கிறதா?
Dear Aishu, Thankyou very much for the F B. As DIL, no woman will like that proverb, but as daughters, we cannot deny it as well ! May God bless you with a Sweet daughter ! Love, Chithra. கலப்பால் கறக்கலாம்; துளிப்பால் முலைக்கு ஏற்றலாமா?
My dear Kodi, You are very right. 15 seems to be endorsed by everybody ! Thanks for your F B. Love, Chithra. கழுதைக் காமம் கத்தினால் தீரும்; நாய்க் காமம் அலைந்தால் தீரும் !
My dear Jothi, I am very happy that you have joined us here. Praying for a son, is so deeply ingrained in our Indian, psychology, I suppose. We are 2 daughters & luckily, my parents have never missed a son. We, sisters, always tease our mother " எங்களிடம் தான் உங்க பாச்சா எல்லாம் பலிக்கும். மாட்டுபெண் இருந்தால் ஒன்றும் நடந்திருக்காது" ! My sister looks after my mother - can't help saying, it has taken a load off my mind. Thanks for the F B, Jothi. Love, Chithra. கள்ளப் புருஷனல் நம்பிக் கணவனைக் கை விடலாமா?
Dear Chitra You have all the liberty to ask and my pathetic answer is laziness.I will more prompt in the future Regards Sowmya
