OLD HUNGARIAN PROVERBS
Ha egy disznót tanítsz énekelni,
talán majd az énekkarhoz akar csatlakozni.
> If you teach a pig to sing then it may wish to join the choir.
==============================================
Egy rosszul etetett juh az ördög harmonikája.
> An under-fed goat is the devil's harmonium.
Egy égett zsiráfnak nincs szüksége egy periszkópra.
> A scalded giraffe needs no periscope.
A zsebben lévö rák egyenlö egy csípéssel a fenékre.
> A lobster in the pocket is worth a nip on the buttocks.
A részeg denevér néha hátrafelé repül.
> A drunken bat will sometimes fly backwards.
Sose ne vadássz bálnát egy lekvárüveggel.
> Never fish for whales with a jamjar.
Ma tök, holnap mókus ebédje.
> Today an acorn, tomorrow a squirrel's dinner.
Élet végéig nehéz munkát a lónak, néhány napig finom húst a macskának.
> A life of hard work for the carthorse,
> a plate of fine mince for the cat.
==================================================
