మెత్తలు ఎండకు వేస్తే, మెడ నొప్పులు పోతాయా?

This is a raw and blunt folk expression used to describe a situation where an outsider cannot possibly understand or empathize with the intense personal suffering or specific problems of another person. It highlights that someone who is not experiencing the hardship (or is the cause of it, like an ant bite) is oblivious to the actual depth of the victim's agony.

This proverb highlights that certain experiences or responsibilities are so intense or natural that they do not require external reminders or prompts.

This expression is used to describe a person who is extremely cunning, slippery, or argumentative.

This is a sarcastic or idiomatic expression used to question someone who is being unnecessarily silent or refusing to speak when they should. It implies that the person is acting as if speaking would cause them to lose something precious (like pearls). It is often used to encourage someone to speak up, answer a question, or join a conversation.

This expression refers to creating unrealistic plans or daydreams that have no solid foundation. It is used to describe someone who is being impractical or overly idealistic about the future without taking any concrete action.
