Abstract:

Abstract“The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence/hill” is an old English proverb which shows that people tend to appreciate more what others have, just by crossing (with their eyes) the border represented by the fence/hill. Though the afore-mentioned proverb is a strong piece of advice against comparing what we possess with what others have, the aim of my paper is exactly that: to compare proverbs belonging to the Romanian culture to those of the Korean one, not for the sake of highlighting the wisdom or beauty of the Romanian over the Korean proverbs or vice versa but rathe

Abstract:

In this article, I focus on the difference between proverbs and idioms which derive from proverbs. Both proverbs and idioms are hard to deﬁ ne, as it is also difﬁcult to categorize a speciﬁc expression being either a proverb or an idiom. Fixed form is one feature of proverbs as well as that a proverb appears as a sentence, but today one can easily ﬁnd variations and/or modiﬁcations of proverbs. To see how those idioms which derive from proverbs are used in actual speech, I have collected examples from a number of corpuses. Some of these idioms are truncated and, being quite conventional, used

Abstract The present paper starts by defining proverbs and discussing their form and meaning.

The use of proverbs helps enrich the text in which they are used, since they draw on traditional wisdom and, therefore, carry the weight of popular acceptance as authentic truth.
