“If a wife doesn't get pregnant, she gives birth to her husband.”

Meaning

This proverb, to some extent, shows a funny and bitter truth. It indicates that if a woman does not bear children (especially a male child), her husband might become like a child to her, becoming dependent on her. Or it describes how when the husband starts showing childlike behavior or becomes weak, his wife cares for him or controls him just like her child.

ትርጉም

ይህ ምሳሌ በተወሰነ መልኩ አስቂኝና መራር እውነታን የሚያሳይ ነው። አንዲት ሴት ልጅ ሳትወልድ ብትቀር (በተለይ ወንድ ልጅ) ባሏ ለሷ እንደ ልጅ ሊሆን እንደሚችል፣ በእሷ ላይ ጥገኛ ሊሆን እንደሚችል ያመለክታል። ወይም ባልየው የልጅነት ባህሪ ማሳየት ሲጀምር ወይም ደካማ ሲሆን ሚስቱ ልክ እንደ ልጇ የምትንከባከበው ወይም የምትቆጣጠረው መሆኑን ይገልጻል።
