✦

“The barber's child's hair became dreadlocks.”

Meaning

This proverb signifies that someone who is skilled and provides a particular service to others might neglect their own or their family's needs in that very area. It highlights the irony where a professional excels in their craft for clients but fails to apply the same care or attention to their personal life or immediate surroundings.

ትርጉም

ይህ ምሳሌ የሚያመለክተው አንድ ሰው የራሱን ስራ ለሌሎች ሲሰራ፣ የራሱን ወይም የቤተሰቡን ጉዳይ ችላ ሲል ነው። 'የቀኝ እጁ ለግራ እጁ እሾህ ነው' ከሚለው ጋር ተመሳሳይ ትርጉም አለው።
