Big name; wrecked village.
Often recited when talking about a popular place (one perceived to be grandiose) that is actually not at all worth the impression that people have of it. The phrase is nearly a paradox.
name grandiose, village ruinous
shoom'ma goora, mata kharaba
ܫܘܼܡܵܐ ܓܘܼܪܵܐ, ܡܵܬ݂ܵܐ ܚܵܪܵܒܵܐ
name grandios, village ruinous
[shawmo gowro, motho khorobo] (Unverified)
ܫܽܘܡܳܐ ܓܽܘܪܳܐ, ܡܳܬ݂ܳܐ ܚܳܪܳܒܳܐ
Most likely an Assyrian phrase. (Unverified)
The man is the worker. The woman is the builder. (1)
Comes from the times when men had to go to lands far from home to conduct business or work. And the man would send money back home, where his wife would manage the household. The woman would make purchases as necessary for the needs and advancement of the family. So the men were the workers and the women were the builders.
Man is worker. Woman is builder.
