“The human body is a real miracle. Children at any age show interest in exploring their own bodies. Studying the structure of the human body begins with getting to know the parts of the body. But sometimes it is interesting to study organs not only from an anatomical and physiological point of view. Our Progymnasium is linguistic, the guys devote a lot of time to the Russian language, their native word, and my 4th grade students and I decided to diversify the topic “The Human Body and Its Organs,” which we study in the course of the surrounding world, using additional material from phraseology and ethnography.”

All authors: “There are hundreds and thousands of popular words, proverbs and sayings. People use them in their speech because with their help it is easier for them to express their thoughts, feelings and experiences, and easier to communicate with others. And the language, thanks to stable folk expressions, becomes brighter and more imaginative. We hear them since childhood, read about them in books, and learn to use them correctly in our speech. Let's try to figure out how proverbs and sayings differ from each other.

A proverb is a small parable. This is a condemnation, a sentence, a lesson. Usually it consists of two parts - the condemnation of something (someone) and the interpretation of this condemnation. A proverb is a phrase or sentence, the words of which are used in a figurative sense; it is, as it were, the first half of a proverb. The proverb often does not call a spade a spade, but seems to hint. For example, we often say: “Just give him a finger,” and there are many proverbs that continue this thought: “Give him a finger, and he’ll bite off your whole hand,” “Give him free rein to your finger, and they’ll bite off your whole hand,” “Give him free rein to your nail.” and he’ll take the whole elbow,” “Give me about a nail, he’ll ask for an elbow.”

Masha Shchukina and Masha Zhigun: “It’s no secret that the folklore of the Russian people is replete with proverbs and sayings, where the peculiarities of people’s disposition, character, and bad upbringing are aptly noted and criticized. For each part of the body that we studied in the lesson about the world around us, we selected suitable proverbs and sayings.

So, the human body consists of:

Heads: “The head is thick, but the head is empty”, “A cheerful head lives carelessly”, “One head is good, but two are better”, “How many heads, so many minds”, “The head is the beginning of everything”; “When you take off your head, you don’t cry over your hair,” etc.

Necks: “He sits on my neck,” “He sat on my neck and dangled his legs,” “The husband is the head, and the wife is the neck; she will turn it wherever she wants,” etc.

Torso (body): “In a healthy body there is a healthy spirit”, “The water is cold - the body is vigorous”, “Your shirt is closer to the body”, “Space for the body, cramped soul”, etc.

Upper limbs (arms): “With hands you won’t get lost anywhere”, “You can’t take everything in one hand”, “Don’t cut a tree higher than your hands”, “With hands you won’t get lost anywhere”, “It’s easy to rake in heat with someone else’s hands”, “Your own hand” lord: what he wants, he drags,” etc.

Lower extremities (legs): “There is no truth in the legs”, “Everyone is limping on his own leg”, “Look at your feet: even if you don’t find anything, you won’t hurt yourself”, “Your leg will stumble, but your head will get it”, “If you pick it up with your hands, you won’t kicks”, “Standed up with the left foot”, etc.

Particular attention is paid to the head (“Great honor for a big head”). On the head there are organs, the names of which are very often found in proverbs and sayings:

Eyes (eyes): “The eye sees, but the tooth is numb”, “In someone else’s eye there is a big speck”, “In someone else’s eye everything is crooked”, “In a crooked eye everything is crooked”, “The eyes are afraid, but the hands do”, “The truth is the eye” stabs”, “Your eye is a diamond, someone else’s is glass”, etc. etc.

Mouth (mouth) and what is in it: “Some people have a mouth full, but he asks for everything to eat”, “With your lips and drink honey”, “If only there were bread, there would be teeth”, “Eat a pie with mushrooms, and keep your mouth shut”, “Work is with your teeth, and laziness is with your tongue”, “Our Fedul pouts his lips”, “Pain without a tongue, but it affects”, “With the tongue that sows with a sieve”, etc. .

Ears: “God gave two ears, and one tongue”, “Behind the ear and into the sun”, “Ears on top of the head”, “It flew into one ear and flew out of the other”, “Ears do not grow above the forehead”, etc. .

Nose: “He sees behind the forest, but not under his nose,” “Don’t poke your nose into someone else’s millet,” “Take care of your nose in the deep frost,” “You can’t jump higher than your nose,” “Don’t raise your nose: you’ll trip,” etc.

Hair, mustache, beard: “In a fight they don’t spare hair”, “Beard to the waist, but not a hair of reason”, “And there’s no blow in your mustache”, “When you lose your head, you don’t cry over your hair”, “Brown braid is a girl’s beauty” , “You can’t make a beard out of a mustache,” etc.

It is not so easy to understand them, and even more so, to use them correctly in your speech, so we decided to explain some proverbs, the meaning of which was not entirely clear to some of our comrades.

The proverb “The eyes are afraid, but the hands do” tells us that you can do everything yourself, you just have to want it and start doing it.

“Wags his tongue like a cow’s tail” - talk in vain, avoid a direct answer, get off with meaningless words.

“You can’t keep up with your tongue even barefoot,” they say about a talkative person.

“You can’t put a scarf on every mouth” - when people talk a lot and in vain, discussing other people, their shortcomings, without noticing their own. You shouldn’t pay attention to such people and take their conversations to heart.”

Nastya Metelskaya and Dasha Zmeevskaya: “By the way, about the heart. There are so many proverbs and sayings about him. And although the heart is not a part of the body, but an internal organ of the human body, we could not help but note “his majesty the Heart”, which works day and night in our chest. In the GEO magazine we found interesting information that the heart, this muscle the size of a fist, pumps 9,000 liters of blood every day through vessels 96,000 kilometers long - that's more than two trips around the world.

In proverbs and sayings, it is most often spoken of not as an organ of the human body; more often this word is used in a figurative sense, associated with the human soul. “Don’t look into the face, but look into the heart”, “There are no relatives, but the heart aches on the native side”, “Rust eats iron, but sadness eats the heart”, “Out of sight, out of mind”, “A mother’s heart is better than the sun” warms”, “The heart is a falcon, the courage of a crow”, “A hard heart knows no gratitude.” We also tried to separate proverbs from sayings on this topic, because it is quite difficult, and we want to learn how to do it well. Here's what we got:

Proverbs Sayings

There is bad weather in the heart, and it rains in a bucket. The heart is not a stone.

There is honey on the tongue, and ice in the heart. You can't get into your heart.

What is brewing in the heart cannot be hidden in the face. Lawless Heart.

There is a heart, but it is closed with a door. The heart gives the message to the heart.

Rust eats iron, and sadness eats the heart. The sadness gnaws at the heart.

Nastya Metelskaya: I wanted to draw some proverbs as if someone didn’t know Russian well and understood them literally

Masha Shchukina: “When we were looking for information about eyes, we read what the evil eye is. We wondered if such a concept exists only in Russia?

It turns out that the belief that the gaze has a mysterious power that can cause harm to other people, pets, plants and even inanimate objects is as old as time and widespread among all peoples of the Earth. “Often the soul influences another’s body in the same way as its own, as, for example, when influenced by the evil eye,” wrote the famous philosopher and physician Avicenna (980 -1073) in the book “On Nature.” The evil eye is spoken of in Scandinavian sagas, Arabian tales, Aztec and Australian aborigines. In the codes of Roman law, those guilty of the evil eye could be sentenced to death. In medieval Europe, society fought witches harshly.

The Gospel of Mark says: “For from within, from the heart of man, come evil thoughts, malice, deceit, an envious eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.” It seems to me that what is being said here is that if a person is angry and envious, then his gaze will be unkind, and one cannot expect good things from such a person.

They were “treated” for the evil eye using different methods: fire, water, herbs, with the help of magical symbols and spells. “In Rus', from diseases attributed to the evil eye, early in the morning they go to a spring, scooping up water downstream, close the vessel and return home silently and without looking back,” wrote the collector of fairy tales and customs of the Russian people A. N. Afanasyev, “then they throw one or three burning coals, a piece of pechina (kiln clay), a pinch of salt into the brought water and sprinkle it on the patient or pour it on him twice a day at the dawn of the morning and evening with the sentence: “Water is off a goose, water off a swan is off you.” thinness! How many times have we heard these words from our parents after a shower and bath, but only now have we learned where this expression came from and what it means!”

All authors of the work: “It was interesting for us to work with books, looking for the necessary information. We got our parents involved and searched online together. We are convinced that if you look for additional material yourself, then learning becomes more interesting. We also learned a lot of new, unusual and even surprising things. And proverbs and sayings will help us express our thoughts more correctly and beautifully.”

Russian proverbs, sayings and customs associated with the names of parts of the human body

There are hundreds and thousands of popular words, proverbs and sayings. People use them in their speech because with their help it is easier for them to express their thoughts, feelings and experiences, and easier to communicate with others. And the language, thanks to stable folk expressions, becomes brighter and more imaginative. We hear them since childhood, read about them in books, and learn to use them correctly in our speech. Let's try to figure out how proverbs and sayings differ from each other.

A proverb is a small parable. This is a condemnation, a sentence, a lesson. Usually it consists of two parts - the condemnation of something (someone) and the interpretation of this condemnation. A proverb is a phrase or sentence, the words of which are used in a figurative sense; it is, as it were, the first half of a proverb. The proverb often does not call a spade a spade, but seems to hint. For example, we often say: “Just give him a finger,” and there are many proverbs that continue this thought: “Give him a finger, and he’ll bite off your whole hand,” “Give him free rein to your finger, and they’ll bite off your whole hand,” “Give him free rein to your nail.” and he’ll take it for the whole elbow,” “Give it from the nail, he’ll ask for the elbow.”

It is no secret that the folklore of the Russian people is replete with proverbs and sayings, where the peculiarities of morality, character of people, and bad upbringing are aptly noted and criticized. For each part of the body that we studied in the lesson about the world around us, we selected suitable proverbs and sayings.

So, the human body consists of:

- heads: “The head is thick, but the head is empty”, “A cheerful head lives carelessly”, “One head is good, but two are better”, “How many heads, so many minds”, “The head is the beginning of everything”; “When you take off your head, you don’t cry over your hair,” etc.

- neck: “He sits on my neck” “He sat on my neck and dangled his legs”, “The husband is the head, and the wife is the neck; she will turn wherever she wants,” etc.

- torso (body): “A healthy body means a healthy mind”, “The water is cold - the body is vigorous”, “Your shirt is closer to the body”, “Space for the body, cramped soul”, etc.

- upper limbs (arms) : “You won’t get lost anywhere with your hands”, “You can’t take everything in one hand”, “Don’t cut a tree higher than your hands”, “With your hands you won’t get lost anywhere”, “It’s easy to rake in the heat with someone else’s hands”, “The ruler has his own hand: what he wants, then it drags,” etc.

- lower extremities (legs) : “There is no truth in your feet”, “Everyone is limping on his own foot”, “Look at your feet: even if you don’t find anything, you won’t hurt yourself”, “You stumble on your foot, but it hurts your head”, “If you take it with your hands, you don’t give it back with your feet”, “ Got up on my left foot,” etc.

Particular attention is paid to the head (“Great honor for a big head”). On the head there are organs, the names of which are very often found in proverbs and sayings:

- eyes (eyes): “An eye sees, but a tooth is numb”, “In someone else’s eye there is a big knot”, “In someone else’s eye everything is crooked”, “In a crooked eye everything is crooked”, “The eyes are afraid, but the hands do”, “The truth stings the eyes”, “One’s own an eye is a diamond, someone else’s is glass,” etc.

- mouth (mouth) and what is in it: “Someone’s mouth is full, but he asks for everything to eat”, “With your lips and drink honey”, “If there was bread, but there would be teeth”, “Eat a pie with mushrooms, and keep your mouth shut”, “Work with teeth, and laziness is with the tongue”, “Our Fedul pouts his lips”, “Pain without a tongue, but it affects”, “With the tongue that sows with a sieve”, etc.

- ears: “God gave two ears and one tongue”, “Behind the ear and into the sun”, “Ears on top of the head”, “It flew into one ear and flew out of the other”, “Ears do not grow above the forehead”, etc.

- nose : “He sees behind the forest, but not under his nose”, “Don’t poke your nose into someone else’s millet”, “Take care of your nose in the deep frost”, “You can’t jump higher than your nose”, “Don’t raise your nose: you’ll trip”, etc.

- hair, mustache, beard: “In a fight they don’t spare their hair”, “Beard to the waist, but not a hair of reason”, “And there’s no blow in your mustache”, “Having lost your head, you don’t cry over your hair”, “A brown braid is a girl’s beauty”, “Beards don’t come from mustaches” cut it out”, etc.

It is not so easy to understand them, and even more so, to use them correctly in your speech, so we decided to explain some proverbs, the meaning of which was not entirely clear to some of our comrades.

The proverb “The eyes are afraid, but the hands do” tells us that you can do everything yourself, you just have to want it and start doing it.

“You can’t put a scarf on every mouth” - when people talk a lot and in vain, discussing other people, their shortcomings, without noticing their own. You shouldn’t pay attention to such people and take their conversations to heart.”

Here's what we got:

The eyes are ashamed, but the soul rejoices. The eyes are ashamed, but the soul is happy. You can’t see it with your eyes, you’ll complete it with your money. If you cross your eyes, you will end up in a hole.
