A big decision

My little sister had peeled off stickers from a book and has stuck it all over the house. I found that she had stuck one on my mother's cell phone to. I thought that it was very thoughtful of my sis to have done that. My ammA did not realize that. So I thought I should tell her.

pAdukA - M romba sweet ammA (ammA M is very sweet)
ammA - yen? (why?)
pAdukA -  nee avalai maraka kudAdhu nnu sticker ottirkA onnoda phone la. (She has stuck a sticker on your phone so that you will not forget her)
ammA - nAn yen avvalai marakanum (Why will I forget her?)
pAdukA - avo kalyAnam pannindu poittapparam (After she gets married)
ammA (sad) - enna vittutu yen poonum (why should she leave me?)
pAdukA - kalyAnam apporam avo family oda iruppa avo Athula (She will live with her family in her house)
ammA - appo nAn (then what happens to me?)
pAduka - nee onnoda family oda iruppa (you will stay with your family)
I could not see my ammA so sad, so I made a decision
pAdukA - nAn kalyAnam pannindu onnoda ye irukken yennoda family oda (I will stay with you after marriage with my family)
pAdukA - happy ammA?
ammA (my little one already thinks about distant future!) - yes happy pattu :) (I am happy sweetie) 

My interpretation

I have been seeing a commercial on TV many times now. I think I understand it well but the meaning is just funny. So I thought I will confirm with my ammA what I understand from the advertisement.

In case you are wondering which advertisement I am talking about vogue empower - start with the boys ad.

Watching the ad being played on T.V.

pAdukA - So mean ma

ammA - yen pAdukA (why pAdukA?)

pAdukA - enna ¨ boys don't cry nnu sollinde irukka. appo girls azhuvaala? (why do do they say ¨boys don't cry¨. Then do girls cry ?)

pAdukA - Girls dhaan azhamaata (Only girls do not cry)

ammA - correct pAdukA. Girls don't cry.

pAdukA (watching the ad) - paaru ma inda girl azhala. anda boy adihchaalum (This girl does not cry even after this boy beats her)

pAdukA - naan correct-a sonnen, girls azhamaattaa (I told you correctly. Girls don't cry)

ammA smiling - correct

pAdukA (reading from the screen) - Let's start with the boys. enna ma start pannanum (ammA, what do we start?)

ammA does not respond. pAdukA continues to think aloud about what she saw and interpreted

pAdukA - nAn nenaikaren boys don't cry nnu sollara ila ammA. adhaan let's start with boys sollara. (I think since they kept saying ¨boys don't cry¨, I think they are saying ¨let's start with the boys¨)

ammA - olaraadha pAdukA (pAdukA, do not blabber)

pAdukA (irritated) - no, ammA. boy's seria azha matta, adhaan let's start teaching them to cry nnu sollara (Boys do not cry properly, that's why they are saying that we should start teaching them to cry proprerly)

ammA - !

Studying grammar

Reading my grammar book is a source of great entertainment. My ammA was amused that I roll in laughter reading my grammar book.

ammA - padI nnu sonna, sirichindrukka? (Why are you laughing when I have asked you to read?)

pAdukA - silly slliy-a potturukku. (This book has silly things)

ammA (going through the book) - inda lesson edha patthi? (What is this lesson about?)

pAdukA (no listening to ammA, lost in her own world keeps giggling)

ammA - past tense pAdukA !

pAdukA - so silly ! 

ammA - ennadhu silly pAdukA ? (what is silly?)

pAdukA - Snoopy nnu oru nAi patthi :) (It is about a dog called Snoopy). He licked Raju's face. (giggles). He chewed grandfather's slippers (more giggling) He opened the door for father (rolls in laughter)

ammA - ennathukku serikara (why are you laughing?)

pAdukA - eppadi oru naai rendu kaal-la ninnnu kadava tharakkum? Picture paar. (How can a dog stand on two legs and open the door? See the picture)

pAdukA - namba kooda oru naai vangi idhumaadhari tricks sollikudukanam. adhu dhaan appa office lerndhu varache kadavu tharakkum (We should also buy a dog and teach tricks. He will open the door for appA when he comes from office.)

ammA - !!! When will she learn grammar? !!
