KISWAHILI: FAMILIA KUBWA HAIKOSI GHALA

Chanzo cha methali hiyo chatokea kwenye utunzaji wa familia kubwa ambayo ina ghala. Familia hiyo hutunzwa kwa kuwalisha watu wake chakula. Ghala hilo ni chombo cha kutunzia chakula kiwezacho kuwalisha, kila siku, watu walioko kwenye familia hiyo. Ndiyo maana, watu husema kwamba, ´familia kubwa haikosi ghala.´

Methali hiyo hulinganishwa kwa watu ambao huwatunza vizuri watu wao, kwa kukitunza chakula cha kuweza kuwalisha watu wao hao. Watu hao huwafundisha pia watu wao, namna ya kufanya kazi kwa bidii na namna ya kuyatunza mazao wayapatayo, ili yasiharibike. Familia za watu hao, huwa na chakula cha kutosha kila wakati, kwa sababu ya bidii yao ya kufanya kazi, na kukitunza chakula kile wakipatacho. Ndiyo maana, watu husema kwamba, ´familia kubwa haikosi ghala.´

Methali hiyo hufundisha watu juu ya kufanya kazi za kuwapatia mahitaji yao, yakiwemo yale ya chakula, na kukitunza chakula hicho, ili watu wao wasife kwa sababu ya njaa.

ENGLISH: A BIG FAMILY MUST HAVE A GRANARY

This proverb comes from the way a large family is managed in terms of food. Such family must have a granary to keep food for its people.The granary keeps food that can feed the people of that family every day. That is why people say that, “a big family must have a granary.”

The proverb relates to people who take good care of their families by preserving food for their people. These people also teach their people how to work hard and how to take care of the crops they produce so that they will not be damaged. The families of these people always have enough food to eat because of their hard work and they keep well the food they have. That is why people say, “a big family must have a granary.”

The proverb teaches people about working hard to meet their basic needs including food so that their people cannot die of hunger.
