뜻
The act of gardening or nurturing flora.
문화적 배경
The 'Maadi Thottam' (Terrace Garden) is a status symbol of health-conscious urbanites in cities like Chennai. Growing a Neem tree (Vembu) or a Drumstick tree (Murungai) in the backyard is common for medicinal and culinary uses. The Thulasi plant is grown in a special structure called 'Thulasi Maadam' and worshipped daily. Schools often have 'Pasumai Padai' (Green Corps) where students are taught to grow plants.
Use with 'Pidikkum'
The easiest way to use this is 'Enakku cedi valarkka pidikkum' (I like growing plants).
Don't say 'Cedi Panna'
Avoid translating 'do gardening' literally as 'cedi panna'. It sounds very unnatural.
