የነፉክክር ቤት ሳይዘጋ ያድራል

✦

“The house of rivalry stays open overnight without being closed.”

Meaning

This proverb suggests that a household or person overly consumed by boasting, rivalry, or showing off (implicitly, neglecting practical matters) is not secure or well-managed. They are so busy competing or proving themselves that they neglect their own security or fundamental responsibilities, leaving themselves vulnerable (their 'house stays open'). It criticizes vanity and misplaced priorities.

ትርጉም

ይህ ምሳሌ የሚያሳየው በኩራት፣ በፉክክር እና በመመካት የሚኖር ቤት ወይም ሰው የተረጋጋና አስተማማኝ አይደለም። በፉክክር ውስጥ ያለ ሰው ለራሱ ጥንቃቄ ማድረግ ይረሳል ወይም የራሱን ቤት ክፍት ይተዋል (ለችግር የተጋለጠ ይሆናል)።
