ያባት ልጅ የማድጋ ዶሮ ነው

“The father's child is a fattened chicken.”

Meaning

This proverb describes a person, often the child of a wealthy or influential father, who grows up without developing their own capabilities or ambition, relying solely on their parent's status or resources. Like a chicken specifically fattened for consumption, it implies someone who lives off inherited comfort and the efforts of others, rather than striving for personal growth or self-sufficiency, suggesting a potential lack of independence or future productivity.

ይህ ምሳሌ የሚያመለክተው በአባት ሀብት ወይም ስም የሚተማመንን፣ በራሱ ጥረት የማያድግና ምንም የማያፈራ ሰው ነው። ልክ ለመታረድ እንደሚጠበቅ የሰባ ዶሮ፣ የሌሎችን ጥረት ብቻ የሚበላ እና ለራሱ ምንም የማያደርግ ሰውን ያመለክታል።
