    Dear All,
    This week we shall go on to " உ".

    1 - உடம்புக்குப் பால் குடிப்பதா ? ஊருக்குப் பால் குடிப்பதா?
    You can never satisfy the world.

    2 - உட்கார்ந்து அல்லவோ படுக்கவேண்டும்?
    First things first.

    3 - உட்கார்ந்தவன் காலில் மூதேவி; ஒடுபவன் காலில் சீதேவி-
    Active man will prosper; lazy man will not .

    4 - உண்டவன் பாய் தேடுவான்; உண்ணாதவன் இலை தேடுவான்
    A fully-fed man will search for a bed, a hungry man will search for a plate.

    5 - உப்பு இல்லாக் கீரை குப்பையில் இருந்தால் என்ன?
    உபயோகம் இல்லாத அகமுடையான் பக்கத்தில் இருந்தால் என்ன ?
    Food without salt and a useless husband serve no purpose.

    6 - உபசார வார்த்தை காசு ஆகுமா?
    உண்டால் ஒழியப் பசி தீருமா?
    Niceties never get you money; hunger needs to be appeased only by food.

    7 - உருண்டு உருண்டு புரண்டாலும் உடம்பில் ஒட்டுவது தான் ஒட்டும்
    You get only what you deserve.

    8 - உழக்கிலே கிழக்கு மேற்கு ஏது ?
    There are no two directions in a very tiny place.

    9 - உள்ளுர் சம்பந்தம் உள்ளங்கை சிரங்கு போல
    If the "sambandis" live locally, it is a pain forever !

    10 - உனக்கும் பெப்பெப்பே உங்க அப்பனுக்கும் பெப்பெப்பே
    He can manage smartly not only you, but your father as well.

    11 - உள்ள தெய்வங்களை எல்லாம் ஒருமிக்க வருந்தினாலும்
    பிள்ளை கொடுக்கிற தெய்வம் புருஷன்
    Even if you pray to all gods, only your husband can make you a mother.

    12 - உடல் உள்ள வரையில் கடல் கொள்ளாக் கவலை
    Worries never end so long as you are alive.

    13 - உண்டால் தீருமா பசி ? கண்டால் தீருமா ?
    Hunger will be appeased only by eating food, not watching it !

    14 -உயிரோடு இருக்கும்போது ஒரு கரண்டி நெய்க்கு வழியில்லை
    ஓமத்துக்கு ஒன்பது கரண்டி நெய் விட்டது போல
    There is nobody to feed him when alive; but when he is dead there is a big feast for the rituals.

    15 - உண்ணவும் தின்னவும் என்னை அழை:
    ஊர்க்கணக்கு பார்க்க என் தம்பியை அழை
    I am ready for food, but if you want work to be done, call my younger brother.

    16 - உதட்டிலே புண்; மாடு கறக்க முடியவில்லை
    Giving lame excuses.

    17 - உதடு தேன் சொரிய, உள்ளெ நெஞ்சு எரிய
    Honey in the lips, ill feelings in the heart

    18 - உப்பு உந்தியா செட்டியாரே என்றால் பப்பு உந்தி என்கிறார்
    You ask the shopkeeper for a thing - he says something else is there.

    19 - உண்ட வயிற்றுக்கு சோறும், மொட்டைத் தலைக்கு எண்ணெயும் போல
    Fully fed man needs no food; bald head needs no oil.

    20 - உண்பது நாழி; உடுப்பது நான்கு முழம்; எண்பது கோடி நினைந்து எண்ணும் மனம்
    We need less food and clothings; but our thoughts are numerous.

    Love,
    Chithra.

    My dearest Aishu !

    I am really touched & feel too emotional for words.
    I cannot thank you enough for following this thread so devotedly. For adorable young friends like you, I will do anything within my limits, my dear Aishu !
    Please, please take care of your conjunctivitis. Do not look at the computer & strain yourself.
    Love,
    Chithra.


    உப்பிட்டவரை உள்ளளவும் நினை.

    My dear Vandhana !

    Thankyou for being as prompt as ever.
    I loved 20 best, is it not very true ?
    5 is practical.
    11 is blunt fact.
    Don't you agree?
    Love,
    Chithra.

    உதடு வெல்லம்; உள்ளம் கள்ளம் !

    My first thread in this site!

    Dear All,
    I registered myself as a member in this wonderful site, just a few minutes back. And this is the first thread I am visiting.

    Oh, My God, how many proverbs are there. I live in Srirangam, Trichirapalli and my grandma used to say a lot of these proverbs.

    Chitra Madam, I enjoyed them all.

    And I also enjoyed your exchange of views.

    I think I have come to the right site.
    regards,
    Kodha Lakshmi
