వండలేనమ్మకు వగపులు మెండు – తేలేనమ్మకు తిండి మెండు

అర్థం

A mother who cannot cook has two ladles (useless to her), and a mother who cannot swim has two foods (equally useless)—meaning possessing tools or resources is worthless without the skill or ability to use them. This proverb teaches that competence matters more than mere abundance.
