mukyācē manīṃ maṅgaḷavāra (मुक्याचे मनीं मंगळवार).—A popular superstition is that no consultation should be carried on on Tuesday night (or on Friday night). Therefore, because the dumb person makes no reply to one addressing him, he is jocosely said to be supposing the season to be Tuesday (and, accordingly, to be keeping silence). The phrase is applied also where a sullen and gloomy person is ever suspecting of speakers that they are speaking about him. mukyācā jāṇa kōṇa hōtō Who can interpret for a dumb (or a mute) person?
