Hi,

 

Recently, while browsing few webpages about, and on Sanskrit (translated in English), I found a proverb, which was said a proverb.

 

It said as follows:

"Niivimocanavelaayaam vastramuulyavicaarakah|"

 

I was just wondering if somebody could help out for its meaning.

 

Expecting your helping answers,

 

Friendly,

P.VIJAYA KUMAR.

Germany.

I think the proverb is not complete. I don't know the proverb but I will translate the sentence.

 

"Somebody who is thinking of the price of the cloth, while untieying the knot of the garment".

 

Explanation: Niivi = a knot of a wearing garment (vastragranthi).

Mochanam (noun)= to untie, to relaese, to set free.

Velaa = time. Velaayaam (locative case) = during the time of, while.

Vastram = cloth.

muulyam = price, cost.

VichaarakaH = Who is thinking of, investigator, examiner.

 

Where exactly did you find that sentence?

 

In the attachment you will see the sentence in Sanskrit script.
