Dear Sri Chilukuri Bhuvaneswar,

 

I will certainly pass on to you any examples of proverbial usage I come across.

Proverbs are, in my experience, generally regarded as cliches by my own

generation (I'm 35) and as such are not widely used in everyday conversation

except ironically. I suspect that those of my mother's generation and of her

mother's, certainly, would be more like to make use of proverbial constructions

(at least, that's the stereotype). What's your thesis concerning proverbs?

 

Best wishes,

 

Grant.

My dear noble devotee of Sri Sankara

Bhagavatpujyapada,

 

 

Thank you very much for your kind reply.I am indeed

very grateful to you.

 

 

I am working on A Sociolinguistic Analysis of Telugu

and English Proverbs. I am trying to find out the

essential ,secondary ,and uncommon characteristics of

proverbs.

 

Even though proverbs is the core of my research ,it it

overflows from the base of linguistic insights of

discourse,and formal and functional and cognitive

linguistics.

 

Flowers leave fragrance in the hands that bestow them!

 

 

Yours in Sri Sankara Bhagavatpujyapada's love.

 

 

Chilukuri Bhuvaneswar
