《辞海》说:谚语是熟语的一种,流传于民间的简练通俗而富有意义的语句,大多反映人民生活和斗争的经验。《现代汉语词典》说:谚语是在群众中间流传的固定语句,用简单通俗的话反映出深刻的道理。泽尔巴赫说:谚语是凝结的群众智慧。英国政治家约翰罗素说:谚语是一个人的才智,也是许多人的才智。
英语的maxim意为:格言、箴言;谚语;原理、主义;行为准则等。proverb意为:谚语、古话;俗语、箴言等。quotation意为语录、名言、谚语。学好谚语,对于英语的提高非常有帮助,一些谚语如果能够做到信手拈来,会让你的文采增色不少。比较谚语的中文和英文,也会让你体会到不同文化之间很多道理都是相同的。有的智慧是如此的相似,简直如出一辙。不得不感慨人类之伟大。希望大家真正学好谚语,并提高自己的英语水平。
