Nice saying here, and a pretty plate too. Here is what Mani (my husband) said with a big smile; "that may be true in Sumathiji's house, but in ours', you are the poonai and I'm the eli"! :) (He was referring to our (mine and his) life which is filled with arguments, almost on a daily basis, on all the topics in this world!) :)

Looks very pretty for the newly weds. Nice art work sumatIjI! They have to be together. If they quarrel inside the boat (vAzhkaippaDagu), it may sink! Actually there is a song by PBS and PS with these lines. The concluding stanza is a beautiful one in this song (pAvai un mugattaik kaNDEn tAmarai malaraik kaNDEn kOvai pOl idhazhaik kaNDEn kunguma chimizhaik kaNDEn)> Regards! - mOhana

Actually, I don't know clearly what he meant by that! You see, he could've referred to our arguments, or, he could've pictured me as the poonai in the saying "eliyum poonaiyum-aa sandai podranga", just because I have a kitty as my blog icon here in the site. There is one more way to look at it, he might've seen himself as the appavi type (in which case he would be the eli). And, to top it, this is the way he comments most of the time, which I find confusing, wouldn't you say? I'm still looking for a collective English term for this kind of a style of talking! Saying something which can have atleast 2 different meanings, and depending on whatever context suits your purpose, you could choose sides, sly if you ask me! :)
