Explanation:
Well ... when one tries to localize something the most appropriate thing would be using the equivalent used in the target lg even if it doesn't represent the source EXACTLY.Here there is a cultural difference in both the expressions. And what I have prescribed in the target lg serves the purpose culturally more appropriately, I feel.
Example sentence(s):- periyorkale , THaaimarkale ungal anaivarukkum mdharkkann en vanakkangal
