Two parts of a proverb​

English
1 answer:
lilavasa [31]3 years ago

Answer:

Proverbs are popular sayings which contain advice or state a generally accepted truth. Most proverbs have their origins in oral tradition, they are generally worded in such a way as to be remembered easily and tend to change little from generation to generation, so much so that sometimes their specific meaning is no longer relevant. For instance, the proverb “penny wise, pound foolish” is a holdover from when America was a British colony and used the pound as currency. Proverbs function as “folk wisdom,” general advice about how to act and live, and because they are folk wisdom, they are often strongly reflect the cultural values and physical environment from which they arise. Proverbs are used to support arguments, to provide lessons and instruction, and to stress shared values.

alukav5142 [94]

because a lot of students can`t eat at home because of they most of the time have reckless parents who do drugs and other things like that so they have to wait till lunch but they won`t be able to concentrate on their work so they will make terrible grades just because a teacher or a principal doesn`t want ¨distractions¨ in the classroom.
