All Proverbs

ለሰው ቢናገሩ መልሶ ለሰው ጫር ጫር አድርጌ አፈር ላልብሰው

✦

“If you tell a person, they will tell another. Let me scratch and put soil on it.”

Meaning

This proverb indicates that if you tell a secret or a private matter to one person, that person will tell it to another. Therefore, it suggests that it is better to keep a secret hidden (cover it with soil) rather than telling it.

ትርጉም

ይህ ብሂል አንድ ሰው ሚስጥርን ወይም የግል ጉዳይን ለሌላ ሰው ሲነግር ያ ሰው መልሶ ለሌላ ሰው እንደሚያወራ ያሳያል። ስለዚህ፣ ሚስጥርን ከመናገር ይልቅ ደብቆ መያዝ (በአፈር መሸፈን) ይሻላል የሚል ሀሳብ አለው።
