PROVERBS, SAYINGS, WINGED WORDS
(about numbers)
Proverbs- short folk sayings with edifying content, folk aphorisms.
Sayings- short, set expressions, mostly figurative, which, unlike proverbs, do not constitute complete statements.
Winged words- figurative, apt expressions, sayings that have come into general use.
The Russian people, like any other, have countless proverbs and sayings. It is difficult to say from what time proverbs and sayings began to circulate among the people. These little wise sayings were created and accumulated by the people over centuries of history. They reflect his life, working conditions, culture. A proverb is always instructive. It always has a conclusion that is useful for everyone to remember.
Proverbs and sayings stick firmly in the memory, their memorization is facilitated by various consonances and rhymes. They are short, there are no unnecessary words, each word is weighty, meaningful and precise:
The proverb is not said in vain.
A stupid speech is not a proverb.
Proverb - a helper to all matters.
Vladimir Ivanovich Dal, compiler of the Explanatory Dictionary of the Living Great Russian Language, wrote that the proverb “is the flower of the people’s mind, it is the everyday folk truth.” Mikhail Sholokhov called the proverb “clumps of reason”, “winged wisdom”.
In our speech, we use not only proverbs and sayings, but also popular expressions very similar to them: short quotes, figurative expressions, and sayings of historical figures included in our speech from literary sources.
Winged expressions are, as it were, halfway to proverbs: like proverbs, they are widely used in speech, but, in contrast to proverbs, they usually belong to a well-known author.

To get kids interested in learning numbers and to teach kids how to write correctly, teachers and parents are sometimes ready to do anything. Puzzles, tongue twisters, rhymes, sayings, proverbs, photos, presentations, etc. can help with this. Folklore genres and video materials will not only help attract children’s attention to the subject, but will also contribute to the development of intelligence, perseverance, and ingenuity.
Count it: how many horses are there in English?
An interesting question to start the lesson will be: what does the number 8 look like? Most likely, the answer will be that the number 8 is like two rings, two donuts, etc. To encourage children to give more original answers to what the number 8 looks like, you can offer them sayings, puzzles, riddles, mathematics in pictures, etc. Let them come up with as many ideas as possible about what the number 8 looks like.
Aids for learning numbers
To study the number 8 with your child, it is not necessary to immediately take up mathematics or copybooks. It’s better to start getting acquainted with numbers in an original, unusual way.
Puzzles are tasks in which the number 8 is encrypted. To solve the puzzles, the child will have to make every effort and intelligence. Puzzles make you think, use logic and imagination. It is the puzzles from all the tasks in the textbook that are most often remembered by children who attend 1st grade.
Proverbs and sayings can be an interesting solution for a math lesson. Offer the kids proverbs and sayings if they need to take a break, get distracted, but at the same time not lose the kids’ attention. For teachers who are going to class in 1st grade, sayings will be an excellent addition to a fact-filled lesson. Use proverbs and sayings more often to develop your child’s speech. It wouldn’t hurt to include tongue twisters with the number 8 in your practice.
A genre of folk art close to puzzles is riddles. It is riddles that make it possible to develop children's intelligence, associative and creative thinking. Riddles contain a description of an object or phenomenon, and from this description you need to guess what it is about. In the case of the number 8, riddles describe it using objects similar to the number eight: rings, donuts, hoops, etc. Riddles will help a teacher coming to 1st grade to attract children's attention to the material in the lesson.
Poems will help develop speech and at the same time teach counting. It is best to use S. Marshak’s poems for children, which can be downloaded on the website. However, if this is not possible, take into account the poems of modern children's authors. Poems will be useful for children to develop a sense of rhythm, memory, and imaginative thinking. Set to learn poetry at home as homework. This is a very useful exercise for children attending 1st grade. Poems not only teach, but also instill a love for the native language.
Coloring will help prepare your child for spelling. Even if the child is already in 1st grade, coloring will be useful for him to practice fine motor skills. Coloring will not only teach you how to trace and color pictures correctly, but later coloring will also be a faithful assistant in copywriting. Let the coloring book enter every home where there are children. Coloring would also come in handy during a lesson in a kindergarten or development center.
Of course, copybooks will help teach children how to write the number 8 correctly. Writing the number 8 is quite simple: just draw two circles one above the other. But even this simple technique can cause difficulties. To learn how to write the number 8 correctly, you need to develop the skill of continuous writing, which results in two circles. Writing numbers correctly is a great skill, and the children will still have to learn it using copybooks.
Let's get acquainted with the number 8 in English. Here you first need to circle the numbers 8 and write them yourself, and then count the groups of objects and circle those of which there are 8 each. Folk wisdom in short sayings involving numbers will be excellent material for reinforcing the study of counting and numbers. And as always, it will expand your vocabulary, thinking, attention and imagination!
And today we return to our favorite numbers, which we simply cannot do without. We have already published a lot of material about numbers. Be sure to take a closer look:

One in action - one in turn. One brand goes out in the stove, but two go out in the field and smoke. Seven with a spoon - one with a bowl. For centuries, people have created wise sayings - proverbs and sayings. It is difficult to say from what time proverbs and sayings began to circulate among the people. We decided to call our project “Numbers in Proverbs and Sayings.”
This number plus hooks - You get points...Answer: number 8 (eight) *** Seven fluffy kittens. They have been eating since the morning. And one asks for sour cream. The Russian people, like any other, have countless proverbs and sayings.
Proverbs and sayings with numbers from 1 to 10:
A proverb is always instructive. The proverb is not said for nothing. A stupid speech is not a proverb. The proverb is an assistant to all matters. One talks about peas, and the other talks about pods. Alone and you'll die at the porridge. One woman is a woman, two women are a market, and three are a fair. One kopeck - and it's edge-on. One shirt - and that's a wash. Chasing two birds with one stone will not catch either one.
Without communicating with anyone, being alone. Seven things cannot be handled by one person. Seven villages, but one horse. For seven years the poppy did not bear fruit, and there was no famine. He was silent for seven years, and cried out on the eighth. Measure seven times and cut once. Let spring come, and summer, and autumn, Let it not melt in the sun - the number eight. Proverbs are short folk sayings with edifying content, folk aphorisms.
Unfortunately, almost no information about the life and activities of al-Khorezmi has survived. His work on arithmetic was translated into Latin in the 12th century, and although the original is lost, the Latin translation Algoritmi de numero Indorum ("Al-Khwarizmi on Indian numbers") still exists.
The proverb has a second meaning, it is an allegory
The name of al-Khwarizmi in its modified form Algorithmus became the common noun “algorithm” and at first meant the entire system of decimal positional arithmetic. These little wise sayings were created and accumulated by the people over centuries of history.
Mikhail Sholokhov called the proverb “clumps of reason”, “winged wisdom”. Winged expressions are, as it were, halfway to proverbs: like proverbs, they are widely used in speech, but, in contrast to proverbs, they usually belong to a well-known author. One warrior leads a thousand. One wolf chases a regiment of sheep. One wolf, and even that one is hungry and howling in the bush. One thief - ruin for the whole world.
One for all and all for one. One mouth and he fights. One chops, and the other blows a trumpet. Everywhere is home for the lonely. For the lonely, where there is bread, there is a corner. One misfortune comes, another leads. One misfortune is rolling in, another is looming.
Walking alone and drowning is boring
One fly in the ointment spoils a barrel of honey. May dew alone is better than oats for horses. One fly can't even eat your belly. One flour, but not only hands baked. One foot is in a bast shoe, the other is in a boot. One foot is shod, the other is unshod, and if there had been a third, I don’t know how I would have walked. One clothing - both in the world, and at the feast, and in the backyard. One hand in honey, the other in molasses. One evening, but different speeches. One grief is not a grief, no matter how two. Do one thing and don’t spoil another. One grain yields a handful. One grain of puda brings.
One ear is deaf. One is beaten, and the other is given slander. One sparrow cannot be divided into twelve dishes. One brave man and a thousand cowards cannot replace. Reap with one hand, and this with the other. You can't tie a knot with one hand. To go alone is a long road. It is not possible for one to travel alone: the road is long. To live alone is to make your heart cold, but in public even death is red.
One can't argue with porridge. He nodded to one, blinked at another, and the third guessed himself. Two devils don't live in a swamp. The inexperienced one stops, but the master continues to run with strength, and - lo and behold! — after a few seconds, fatigue passes, strength is restored, and the chest breathes easily again. The second wind came.
Two-faced Janus. In Roman mythology, the god of time, depicted with two faces facing in opposite directions: the past and the future
This is where this expression comes from, meaning “two-faced person.” Two deaths cannot happen, but one cannot be avoided. The inevitable will still happen, whether you take risks or not. It speaks of the determination to do something associated with risk, danger, and at the same time with the hope that the danger can still be avoided.
Found in Cicero, many famous philosophers, writers of ancient and modern times. Three money a day - wherever you want, go there for the day. I ground it for three days, and ate it in a day and a half. He had three wives, but suffered from them all. Sometimes used ironically. The horse has four legs, and even then it stumbles. Forgive me three times, and the fourth time I'm sick. A mad dog can't even walk five kilometers. Look forward once, look back five times. Have at one's fingertips.
We haven’t seen each other for seven years, but we got together - and there’s nothing to say. Seven changes, and all radishes: tricha radish, sliced radish, radish with kvass, radish with butter, radish in pieces, radish in cubes, and whole radish. Seven axes lie together, and two spinning wheels lie apart. Seven Thursdays, all on Friday. It is said when several people (or even organizations) responsible for a matter rely on each other and each individual treats their responsibilities in bad faith.
In figurative (colloquial) speech, one of the seven wonders of the world is called something wonderful, magnificent. Eight is a proud beauty, intercepted like a wasp. Cheeks like apples And heels under the skirt. This number has a secret. Both in winter and in hot summer I can barely discern where the legs and head are in it. Eight looked out the window in winter: Snowflakes were flying, and it was dark! The lantern was lit, and in the silver of the night she saw her friend in the yard. Eight cats were bored on the bench. The cars were of different colors.
Look how similar we are to each other: You’re from the circles, and you see, so am I! Eight replied: “You know, my friend, it looks like you’re a whole circle taller!” Don't say "eight" without counting. For example, the proverb: The further into the forest, the more firewood - can be understood in the literal sense.
There were seven villagers, one ox, and even that one was naked, and ten police officers. The proverb is short, there are no unnecessary words in it. It is easy and quick to remember. Proverbs and sayings stick firmly in the memory, their memorization is facilitated by various consonances and rhymes.
