Dear Frederick/Fr. Ivo, I have a soft cover book which was gifted to me by a friend. It is a great compilation of Konkani proverbs with their English equivalent. The name of the book is "Vozram" jointly written by Isidore Dantas and Michael Gracias. I like it very much.It comes very handy for speeches and toasts.
Of course our Valmiki is a living encyclopedia and will go out of his way to help.
