Tulu Saying...

Panjida ottugu serdu kanjila p tindndu.

ಪಂಜಿದ ಒಟ್ಟುಗು ಸೇರ್ದು ಕಂಜಿಲಾ ಪಿ ತಿಂದ್ ನ್ಡು 


Translation ----


panji = ಪಂಜಿ   = pig
panjida ottugu serdu = ಪಂಜಿದ ಒಟ್ಟುಗು ಸೇರ್ದು  = in company of pig
kanji =  ಕಂಜಿ    = calf
p tindndu =  ಪಿ ತಿಂದ್ ನ್ದ್    = started eating excretory product


Summary ----


This saying says what happens if we make contacts with bad people.

Here is an example of a pig and a calf. Both have different food habits. Pig is always seen munching the excretory product of animals whereas calf is vegetarian.

If calf makes friendship with pig and prefers to stay with it , then calf has to get adjust with pig's food habits too. It has to start eating excretory product of animals.

Likewise , if we get close to people with bad habits and always stay with them , naturally we also get used to habits of theirs . That's why elders advise us to always stay in contact with good people.
