Goan Proverbs & Sayings


Goan Proverbs and Sayings


'Kaadli jibh, laili taalleak.'

Lit. Trans: 'Just because I have a tongue, I used it to rub the palate'.

Meaning: To speak out of turn.

Sometimes we speak, burst out or shout without realising or thinking about the consequences. So this saying signifies that just because we have a tongue, it should not be used irrationally.
