All Proverbs

ተጨንቆ ኩራት ተንጠራርቶ ራት

✦

“Pride amidst distress; a stretch/struggle for dinner.”

Meaning

This describes someone who maintains their pride or arrogance even when they are in deep distress or difficulty. It highlights the incongruity of showing off or being haughty when one is struggling or in a desperate situation (stretching to afford even a basic meal).

ትርጉም

አንድ ሰው በከፍተኛ ጭንቀት ውስጥ ሆኖ ሳለ እንኳን ኩራቱን ወይም ትምክህቱን እንደማይተው ያሳያል። እጅግ በሚያስጨንቅ ሁኔታ ውስጥ ሆኖ እንኳን እራሱን ከፍ አድርጎ ማሳየቱ።
