Today we gonna examine some English proverbs and their Russian equivalents. Some of them are obvious, some are quite unexpected. Hope you will learn something new!

1. It's better to be safe than sorry
Literally: ...
Russian equivalent: ...

2. Still waters run deep

3. Don't put all your eggs in one basket

4. Don't bite the hand that feeds you

5. Beggars can't be choosers

6. Ignorance is bliss

7. A picture is worth a thousand words

Here are some unique English proverbs that don't have a Russian equivalent:
- Suffering for a friend doubleth friendship

- A volunteer is worth twenty pressed men

- It's better to light a candle than curse the darkness

Try to remember some of the proverbs and use them on our meetings!
