And the woman saw how the magpie flew. And the ram is a good person. And money for the master, sir. And it’s poor and timid; and rich, but crumbly. And without gold they live in joy. And a homeless person is not without a home. And clueless, but memorable. And the man is rich, but without bread he is not a peasant. Both the rich and the simple - everyone has a path to the churchyard. And to God a candle, and to the devil a poker. And you can’t bail out a river with a big bucket. And a big cockroach is no match for a gelding. And a big goose cannot hatch a calf. And the beard has already grown, but he’s crazy

You can't catch up with a runaway. People don’t pat them on the head for lack of skill (...for inability). For a beaten person they give two unbeaten ones.

The witness's hair is not pulled. You can't keep up with a free bird in the field. Taking on everything means doing nothing. The king is also criticized for his eyes. For stupid

The toad stole the crayfish's nest. Greedy like a wolf, and cowardly like a hare. The greedy belly eats up to the ear. The greedy person does not give himself peace. To feel sorry for a horse is to exhaust yourself. To spare the vines is to miss the goat. Regret is no help when death has come. To feel sorry for corned beef is not to please the kids. To feel sorry for your son is to make a fool. Feeling sorry for someone else's, I lost my own. The sting is sharp, and the tongue is sharper than that. He complained up to his mustache, he complained up to his beard. The king favors

After eating the pie, remember the dry crust. You can't catch it with ten pestles in a mortar. His duda goes both here and there. That's all it takes for the cat's lunch. There was no trace of him. It's like teaching him to read and write like a wolf: you say - az and beeches, and he - goats and rams. His penny will burn a beggar’s hand. His caress is not a stroller: you can’t sit down and you can’t go. He won't be cuter when he leaves. The fly will kill him with its wing. You can't fool him with chaff. His fasting

Let's be friends: then I come to you, then you take me to you. God gave the treasure, but they couldn’t take it. I borrowed a penny for transportation a long time ago, but have nowhere to go. A long time ago, when my grandmother was known as her granddaughter. A long time ago, when King Pea fought with mushrooms. The cat has washed its face a long time ago, but there are no guests. Having given your word, hold on, and if you haven’t given, be strong. They will give it into a bag, but if they don’t give it into another bag. They give the fool honor, but he doesn’t know where to sit. If they give you some bread, they will also give you a businessman. God willing

I guessed, but I guessed wrong. The jackdaw is meek, but the stick is short. An accordion-mother is better than a bread-father. The gentleman pranced and fell off his horse. Wherever a falcon flies, there is fresh hair everywhere. Wherever you take a woman, feed your grandson. Where the women are smooth, there is no water in the tub. Wherever the trouble was, it came to us. Where there is trouble, it cannot be avoided. Where the demon cannot, he will send a woman there. Where there are pancakes, here we are; Where the pancakes are, that's fine.

In August - cabbage, in March - sturgeon. In April the earth crumbles. I was in the bathhouse, but couldn’t find a broom. In the bathhouse, the broom is the master, in the oven, the poker. Go to the bathhouse - don’t be afraid of a couple. In troubles a person manages. In a shopless hut you will lie down on the floor. In dishonor there is no money, in waste there is no bread. In wealth the belly is full, the soul is hungry. It’s quiet in the swamp, but it’s hard to live there. IN big place sitting - you need to have a lot of intelligence. In a big heart, the distant is close. In the big corner by yourself

A woman with a cart is easier for a mare A woman flies from the stove, seventy-seven thoughts will change her mind A grandmother said in two A woman's cities don't last long A bathhouse is not a nanny, but at least someone will please A profit is a big brother's burden Trouble (never) comes alone Trouble in the countryside, if there is quinoa table Trouble does not walk through the forest, but through people Poor

And nothing has changed. And the little casket was just opening, maybe something bad would come of it. Amenem the demon cannot be eliminated Appetite comes with eating The artel pot boils thicker
