GRAMMAR COMMENT

Proverbs

A proverb (from Latin: proverbium) is a simple and concrete saying popularly known and repeated, which 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. If a proverb is distinguished by particularly good phrasing, it may be known as an aphorism.

Examples: "The wise woman builds her house, but the foolish tears it down with her own hands. "

"A wise man is strong, and a man of knowledge increases power."

Give the Kazakh or Russian equivalents of these proverbs.

1.If you become a dog, turn into the dog of a wealthy family. 2.A dog shows affection even to a poor family. 3.Govern a family as you would cook a small fish -- very gently. 4. It is easy to govern a kingdom but difficult to rule one's family. 5 Man is the head of the family, woman the neck that turns the head.
