Proverbs

Hello guys!! Nothing defines a culture as distinctly as its language, and the element of language that best encapsulates a society's values and beliefs is its proverbs.So check some of them:

" A penny saved is a penny earned"- It is as useful to save money that you already have as it is to earn more.

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder". - The lack of something increases the desire for it.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." - literal meaning

"Better later than never." - To arrive or do something later than expected isn't good, but it is better than not at all.

"Carpe diem". - enjoy the day, pluck the day when it is ripe.

"Every cloud has a silver lining". - Every bad situation has some good aspect to it.
