የአፍ ወለምታ በቅቤ አይታሽም

✦

“A sprain of the mouth cannot be massaged with butter.”

Meaning

This proverb means that hurtful or inappropriate words, once spoken, cannot be easily undone or remedied with superficial actions. Unlike a physical injury, the impact of words can linger and cause lasting damage, which cannot be simply 'massaged away.' It emphasizes the lasting consequences of what is said.

በአፍ የተነገረ መጥፎ ቃል ወይም ስድብ በቀላሉ ሊጠፋ ወይም ሊስተካከል እንደማይችል የሚያሳይ ምሳሌ ነው። የተናገሩት ነገር የሚያስከትለው ጉዳት ዘላቂ መሆኑን ያብራራል።
