I do know konkani rather well, love proverbs or Opar as we in Salcete call them
but am totally confused by these two. Are these Bardez Proverbs, in what context
are they used.Whenever we have carpenters at home a famous proverb is " Bot
gattlear hat galcho podda" and one is aware what it means, but these two have me
foxed.

Would someone be kind enough to enlighten me.

Thank you
