ያባት ልጅ የማድጋ ዶሮ አንድ ነው

✦

“A father's son and a pot-raised chicken are one.”

Meaning

This proverb suggests that both a favored son (often implying one who is pampered or spoiled) and a chicken raised entirely within a pot (i.e., protected and fed without needing to forage) share a common characteristic: they are overly protected, lack self-reliance, and may not be well-equipped for the challenges of the outside world. It points to the negative consequences of over-pampering.

የአባት ልጅ (በተለይ ብቸኛ ወይም ተመራጭ) እና በቤት ውስጥ በምቾት የምትበለጽግ ዶሮ ሁለቱም ከመጠን በላይ እንደተንከባከቡ እና የራሳቸው ጥረት እንደማያደርጉ ያሳያል። በምቾት ያደጉ ሰዎች ችግርን የማይቋቋሙ ሊሆኑ እንደሚችሉ ይገልጻል።
