The Old Sayings Are the Best
|
|
Proverbs are short well-
known sayings that state a general truth or give advice. They are often
based on images which reflect our culture and view of the world. For
example, many houses in England have a garden with a lawn. As a result,
the expression The grass is always greener on the other side of the
fence means that people are never satisfied with their own situation,
and always think that others are in a better position. Look at these English Proverbs. For each proverb you should decide if your language: a)
has almost exactly the same proverb. 1.- Don't put all your eggs
in one basket.
