All Proverbs

እግር ቢሳሳት ከአንጋዳ አፍ ቢሳሳት ከእዳ

✦

“If the foot errs, from a stumble; if the mouth errs, from trouble.”

Meaning

This proverb illustrates that an error of the foot only leads to physical harm (a stumble or fall), but an error of the mouth (bad speech, broken promises, unfulfilled pledges) can lead to more severe problems, accusations, or the burden of debt/trouble.

ትርጉም

ይህ ብሂል የእግር ስህተት የአካል ጉዳት (መውደቅ) ብቻ እንደሚያመጣ፣ የአፍ ስህተት (መጥፎ ንግግር፣ ዋጋ ያለመክፈል ቃል) ግን ለከፋ ችግር፣ ክስ ወይም የእዳ ሸክም እንደሚዳርግ ያሳያል።
