" varutha padatha da! namma hero nammakkaka ethuchu paniva! " (refer comment in chatango by anon 7377 dated Jun 9)
Touching ! Jarred every sinew of mine ! A sudden jerk, a kick and it all begins again ?!?! An idea can surely change your life but a sentence like that one can really change y(our) blog ! Such grit and unwavering faith in such a simple sentence, it surely brings into anyone that spirit so very essential to run an utterly dumb and useless blog.
The only doubt about that sentence which "might" strike any normal speaker of the language would be, "What the hell is that supposed to mean ??" . Being a normal speaker of the language , it struck me too.
" Varuthu padatha da ! " - so far clear.
"namma hero" - Someone. Doesn't matter who. Maybe Rajinikanth.
" Namakkaka " - for us. for our sake.
The last two words bowled me over. I am guessing it is some new form of the language I don't understand or it is a combination of maybe Tamizh, Italian and Mandarian. Well, I might be wrong about guessing the Mandarian part though. It might be Cantonese.
"Ethuchu Paniva" - ??? Don't read it quickly. Try reading it a bit slower keeping the best Mandarian or Italian accent you presently have in your mind and it turns out to be some phrase from some beautiful poem whose name too must sound like these words.
Whatever it is, it sounds nice and I might use the phrase in all future posts ( LOL ). Till then, the composer of that short musical whose lyrics include "Ethuchu Paniva", is requested to tell us the meaning. He may remain anon if he wises to.
