معنی
To plot against someone.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Kollywood, 'Kuzhi parithal' is a central theme in 'Masala' movies. The villain is often a 'frenemy' who plots the hero's downfall. The 'Tirukkural' warns against 'Utpaga' (internal enmity), which is the philosophical basis for this idiom. In villages, this idiom is often used literally in land disputes, where people might actually sabotage irrigation or paths. Young Tamilians use this phrase to describe 'toxic' work environments and 'backstabbing' colleagues.
Use with Dative
Always remember to use the -ukku (to/for) ending for the person being plotted against.
Don't use for gardening
If you say 'Kuzhi parikkiren' while planting a tree, people might think you are being poetic or weird. Use 'Thondugiren'.
