Proverb #631


Onye (na) enweghị ihe obu, anaghị akụwa ihe.


Editorial:
The giver of the proverb didn't give the bracketed sense - (na - that) ... The literal English: The person that has not carried a thing, a pot for instance, cannot break anything. The form of the sentence without 'na' - works just fine - a kind of attitudinal speaking.
