“Telugu:
పత్తిగింజలు తింటావా బసవన్నా అంటే ఆహా అన్నాడట, గంత కట్టనా బసవన్నా అంటే వూహూ అన్నాడ”
English Translation:
When Basavanna was asked if he would eat cotton seed, he said “ Aha”; when Basavanua was asked whether he would have on the pack saddle he said “Uhu.”Basavanna is the name of a bull sacred to Siva. Bullocks are often familiarly called by this name. Âhâ is an exclamation signifying consent. Ûhû signifies refusal.
