Proverbs

English proverbs do not pay much attention to family ties and age-related relationships in the family.

In Russian, statements about a woman in a general sense, and about her specific role in the family and society on her external and internal qualities, all this is reflected more brightly, broadly, comprehensively.

Proverbs about grandmoher, mother and wife

• Материнская молитва со дна моря вынимает (достает).
• Жену бей, так щи вкусней.
• Бабушка старенька, а денег у нее маленько.

• A mother’s love is best of all.
• All are good lasses, but whence come the bad wives.
• Doted daughters make daddling wives.

In the proverbs of the Russian and English languages, the view on the woman’s role, on her external and internal qualities, on her emotional state coincides.

But in the Russian language all this is reflected more brightly, broadly, comprehensively.
