O QUE SIGNIFICA PROVERB EM INGLÊS

Provérbio

Proverb

Um provérbio é um ditado simples e concreto, popularmente conhecido e repetido, que expressa uma verdade baseada no senso comum ou na experiência prática da humanidade. Muitas vezes são metafóricas. Um provérbio que descreve uma regra básica de conduta também pode ser conhecido como uma máxima. Os provérbios são muitas vezes emprestados de línguas e culturas semelhantes e, às vezes, desce para o presente através de mais de um idioma. Tanto a Bíblia como o latim medieval desempenharam um papel considerável na distribuição de provérbios em toda a Europa. Mieder concluiu que as culturas que tratam a Bíblia como "seu principal livro espiritual contêm entre trezentos e quinhentos provérbios que decorrem da Bíblia". No entanto, quase todas as culturas têm exemplos de seus próprios provérbios exclusivos.

A proverb is a simple and concrete saying, popularly known and repeated, that expresses a truth based on common sense or the practical experience of humanity. They are often metaphorical. A proverb that describes a basic rule of conduct may also be known as a maxim. Proverbs are often borrowed from similar languages and cultures, and sometimes come down to the present through more than one language. Both the Bible and medieval Latin have played a considerable role in distributing proverbs across Europe. Mieder has concluded that cultures that treat the Bible as their "major spiritual book contain between three hundred and five hundred proverbs that stem from the Bible." However, almost every culture has examples of its own unique proverbs.

I believe that patterns tend to repeat themselves and there are connections between the past and the present. There is the old proverb that reads, 'You can't know where you're going if you don't know where you've been'. For me, history is like that. When you take history and combine it with myth, then you get mystery.
