ఆమడలు దూరమైతే అంతఃకరణాలు దూరమవుతాయా?

This expression is used to question why someone would stop caring for or remembering someone/something just because they are no longer physically close or in constant contact. It is similar to the English proverb 'out of sight, out of mind', but used as a challenge to suggest that physical distance should not result in emotional distance or forgetfulness.

This expression is used to convey that physical distance between people (friends, family, or lovers) does not necessarily lead to emotional distance or a lack of affection. Even if individuals are separated by great distances (Amada being an old unit of distance), their hearts and thoughts remain connected.

This proverb highlights the difference between seeing a destination and actually reaching it. While an object or place might look close to the eyes, the physical effort and distance required to walk there can be significant. It is used to caution someone that planning or visualizing a task is much easier than the actual physical execution of it.

This proverb is used to describe an inseparable relationship or an intimate bond between two people or things. It implies that certain entities are so closely linked by nature, family, or affection that they can never be truly distanced or considered strangers to one another.

Applied to any thing which can easily be tested by actual observation.

This proverb is used to illustrate that if there are no boundaries, rules, or protections in place, unwanted elements or trouble will inevitably enter. It emphasizes the necessity of discipline and security to prevent chaos or exploitation.

This proverb suggests that outsiders should never interfere in the private disputes between a husband and wife. While their disagreement might seem wide or serious (six miles/aramadalu), they are still fundamentally close, and any third party who enters that space will only cause unnecessary trouble or find themselves unwanted once the couple reconciles.

This expression is used to remind someone that even if a person or thing is physically distant (out of reach or out of the house), they are still kept in one's thoughts and memories. It is often used in the context of loved ones living far away, emphasizing that physical distance does not mean they are forgotten.

This expression is used to describe a situation where laws, rules, or authority figures have no influence or control over lawless, unruly, or uncultured people. Just as a forest fox does not recognize the authority of a city police officer (Kotwal), some people simply ignore social order or discipline.

What does the moon care if the dogs bark at her? (German.)*

This expression is used to suggest that even if you cannot see someone or something in person, you can still hear about them or stay in touch. It emphasizes that physical absence does not justify a complete lack of communication or information.

This expression is used to describe someone who is reaching the very end of their life or is extremely old. It signifies that their connection to the living world (the village) is fading, while their transition to death (the graveyard) is imminent.
