వింత లేనిదే ఆవులింత పుట్టదు

This proverb is used to describe a situation where an inexperienced person or a novice tries to give advice or teach someone who is far more experienced and knowledgeable than them. It highlights the irony and absurdity of someone trying to teach a basic, natural, or long-practiced skill to a veteran.

This expression suggests that nothing happens without an underlying cause or motivation. It is often used to imply that if someone is acting unusually or if a rumor is spreading, there must be some truth or specific reason behind it.

* A somewhat different version of the story is given in the Madras Church Missionary Record for October 1865 by the Rev. F. W. N. Alxander : "I could get very little information from my informant about this ancient king, one thing only is certain that in his days the Mohammedans invaded this part of India and besieged Wurrangal, but the Fort was not taken in his days. The story told to me by several people is very contradictory and unlikely in itself. The most credible version seems to be, that Wurrangal was besieged by the Padasha of Delhi in person, and for 7 years the assailants were beaten by the threat of being thrown into the sea from the large space enclosed by the walls. Falling in this way, they at last took the king by stratagem. The Mohammedans feigned a desire for peace and decoyed Pra- táparudru outside the gates on pretence of making peace, and then seized him in a chariot and carried him off to Delhi and kept him there many days. Meanwhile things went on badly in Wurrangal. In the absence of their king the people refused to obey the minister, and anarchy reigned in the city. The minister resolved to deliver his lord from confinement, and restore him to his subjects. He went to Delhi and began to tell in the most public manner that he was come to release Pratáparudru, the imprisoned king. For this he was imprisoned and beaten again and again, till at last he was regarded as a mad man and no heed was taken of his sayings or doings. Roaming through the city, he at last found out where his lord was, and brought to him two legs of the carved ebony cot on which the king used to sleep in Wurrangal, and offered them for sale. They were recognized at once; and the pretended seller was asked where he got them and where the remaining pair was to be found. The king was told that the missing pair would be found on board a ship in the river, and he was asked to come and see them. To this the king assented, and somehow brought with him the Padasha of Delhi. They both went on board the ship indicated, and at the helm was seen the pre- tended mad man who was in truth the minister of the king. In an instant the ship was loose, and the sails spread, keeping in mid-stream they escaped down the river before they could be apprehended, and entering the Godaveri the king and the Padasha made their way to Wurrangal. The latter is said was subsequently released by ransom, and Pratáparudru died peaceably in his own city."

This expression is used to emphasize that certain occasions or events are incomplete without their most essential or traditional element. Just as a traditional wedding feast is considered incomplete without the sweet dish 'Athirasa', a situation lacks its true essence if the core requirement is missing.

This proverb emphasizes that without hard work, effort, or a certain level of pressure/urgency, results cannot be achieved. Just as heat is essential for cooking rice, diligence is necessary for success.

This proverb is used ironically or sarcastically to describe a situation that is incomplete or lacks its fundamental purpose. Just as a woman cannot be a mother without children, a grand event like a wedding is rarely free of some level of worry or responsibility. It implies that certain roles or events naturally come with inherent burdens or characteristics, and without them, the situation is paradoxical or meaningless.

This proverb emphasizes the importance of communication and self-advocacy. It suggests that even the most caring person might not fulfill your needs if you don't express them, implying that one must speak up or ask for what they want to achieve their goals.

This proverb highlights that natural bodily functions or inevitable outcomes cannot be suppressed by force. It is used in situations where someone tries to hide a major problem by controlling a minor symptom, or more broadly, to express that certain truths or natural processes will eventually find a way out regardless of attempts to contain them.

This expression is similar to 'There is no smoke without fire.' It suggests that every unusual event, rumor, or surprising news must have some underlying cause or kernel of truth. It is used when someone questions the origin of a strange occurrence or a piece of gossip.

This is a pun on the Telugu word 'Chinta' which means both 'worry' and 'tamarind'. It is used humorously to describe a situation where someone says they have no worries, but in reality, they are missing a basic necessity or the very thing that gives life flavor. It highlights that being completely free of 'concerns' might sometimes mean lacking something essential.

This expression suggests that every action or occurrence, no matter how small or natural it seems, has an underlying cause or reason. It is often used to imply that something unusual must have happened to trigger a specific reaction or to suggest that there is more to a situation than meets the eye.
