வாழ்க்கையே தமாஷ்தான்!

நம்மூரில்
- அறுபதில் - ஹர ஹரா!
இவ்வூரில்
- அறுபதில் - வய கரா!

=====================================

நம்மூரில்
- மனைவிக்கு 'MRS'
இவ்வூரில்
- மனைவி இருக்கயிலே 'MISTRESS' ** Controversial!

=====================================

தாத்தா காந்தி
-கடலை உண்டார் - சுதந்திரம் வென்றார்
வாரிசுகள் நாம்
-கடலை போட்டோம் - சுதந்திரம் இழந்தோம்

=====================================

Good One. Kadalai Pottufying is not something new....I guess it has been going on from Gandhi / Nehru time....maybe this word was not conceived at that time.

Me said...

good one!!!

sir nan tamizh nalla pesuven ana padika theriyadhu...planning to learn soon.....i always saw ur tamil posts and just left without knowing wat u wrote.....have seen few people praising ur posts....but couldn't decode a word....this tanglish version really helped me... thanks

Narayanan Venkitu said...

Kaps - I agree, Its a new term which I've never heard during our college days...well even until early 90's. You are right about the kadalai's of Nehru etc.

Me - I am glad you liked it. !
Thank you

Narayanan, here is one more addition to yours:

Nammooril:

"Date" enbadhu saappidum vaarthai

Ivvooril:

:-)

Another observation that I am sure many people will agree:

Wife may be knife, but
Mistress is definitely distress.

அருமை.. ஆனால்

இளமையில் இளமையின்
இனிமையை இனியாமல்
இழந்த பின் இழந்தை பழமாய்
இனிக்க துடிப்பது தானே
மனித மனம்!

(Thanglish:
arumai.. aanaal,

ilamaiyil ilamaiyin
inimaiyai iniyaamal
ilantha pon ilanthai palamaai
inikka thudippathu thaanae
manitha manam!)

Chez said...

Ishmaall correction in the prev thanglish translation.. it should be 'ilantha pin' in 3rd line and not 'ilantha pon'.

Error regretted :-)
