Russian proverbs and sayings are apt expressions, the so-called "catch phrases" invented and used by Russians. And also these are borrowed phrases from written sources and literary works, briefly and succinctly expressing wise and deep thoughts. Most Russian proverbs and sayings consist of two or more rhyming and proportionate parts. Proverbs almost always have direct and figurative. Often there are several variants of proverbs with similar morals. This is called the moral invariant:
Business before pleasure.
You can't take a fish out of a pond without effort.
The work of the master is afraid.
What are their differences?
A proverb is a figurative and apt expression that reflects some kind of life phenomenon. As a rule, they do not make sense, and they are limited to various allegorical expressions. This is their main difference between sayings and proverbs.
Prove that you are not a camel.
Don't keep a fig in your pocket.
Wind in my head.
Keep your nose to the wind.
Proverbs differ from sayings in a more meaningful sense. The ancient proverbs that have survived to this day date back to the 12th century.
A proverb is a genre of folklore that is of interest to people, is the most mysterious, and also the most incomprehensible. They clearly express the experience accumulated over the years and the mind of an entire nation. According to proverbs, one can judge the values of the people, they reflect the most different aspects of people's lives.
Proverbs arose during the primitive communal system, they were passed from mouth to mouth. Their main feature is the conciseness and accuracy of the transmitted. Proverbs usually consist of two parts. In the first - there is a description of the subject, and in the second - there is an expressive assessment of the oral object or phenomenon.
Thus, proverbs are not only the most ancient genre of oral folk art, but also modern, of interest to scientists and people.

THE PROVERB IS NOT FOR FREE SAYS
BUSINESS BEFORE PLEASURE.
Handwritten postscript of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich (1629 - 1676) to the collection of rules for falconry, a favorite pastime of that time. It is usually said as a reminder to a person who, having fun, forgets about the matter.
TWO DEATHS CANNOT BE, AND ONE WILL NOT PASS.
The inevitable will happen anyway, whether you risk it 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.
FIRST PANCAKE Lump.
It often happens that the hostess does not succeed with the first pancake (it is poorly removed from the pan, burns), but the hostess determines from it whether the dough is well mixed, whether the pan has warmed up, whether it is necessary to add oil. It is said to justify the unsuccessful start of a new, difficult business.
CHASE FOR TWO HARES - YOU WILL NOT CATCH ANYONE.
It is said when someone takes on several (usually profitable) cases at once and therefore cannot do a single one well or bring it to the end.
GRANDMA SAID FOR TWO.
In two (simple) - indefinitely, with the ability to understand one way or another. It is not known whether what is supposed to come true; It is still unknown how it will be: one way or another. They say when they doubt the implementation of what they assume.
FOR ONE BEAT TWO UNBEATEN GIVES.
They say when they understand that the punishment for the mistakes made is for the benefit of a person, because this is how he gains experience.
AN OLD FRIEND IS BETTER THAN TWO NEW ONES.
It is said when they want to emphasize the loyalty, devotion and indispensability of an old friend.
ONE HEAD IT'S GOOD, BUT TWO BETTER.
It is said when, when solving an issue, they turn to someone for advice, when they solve a case together
GET LOST IN TWO PINE TREES.
Not being able to figure out something simple, uncomplicated, not being able to find a way out of the simplest difficulty.
FROM THE POT THREE TOP.
Very short, short, small.
PROMISED WITH THREE BOXES.
A lot (say, promise, lie, etc.).
PROMISED THREE YEARS WAITING.
They speak jokingly when they do not believe in the speedy fulfillment of promises made by someone or when the fulfillment of what is promised is delayed for an indefinite time.
CRY IN THREE STREAMS.
That is very bitter to cry.
THE FIFTH WHEEL IN THE CART.
Superfluous, unnecessary person in any business.
SEVEN ARE NOT WAITING FOR ONE.
So they say when they start some business without someone who was late, or with a reproach to someone who makes many (not necessarily seven) wait for themselves.
SEVEN TROUBLES - ONE ANSWER.
Let's risk it again, and if we have to answer, then for everything at once, at the same time. It speaks of the determination to do something else risky, dangerous in addition to what has already been done.
SEVEN TIMES MEASURE CUT ONCE.
Before you do anything serious, think carefully about everything, foresee everything. It is said as advice to consider all possible options for action before starting any business.
TOO MANY COOKS SPOIL THE BROTH.
Without an eye (obsolete) - without supervision, without supervision. The work is done poorly, unsatisfactorily, when several people are responsible for it at once. It is said when several people (or even organizations) responsible for a case rely on each other and each individually treats his duties in bad faith.
ALL TRIN IS GRASS.
The mysterious "tryn-grass" is not at all some kind of herbal medicine that is drunk so as not to worry. At first it was called "tyn-grass", and tyn is a fence. It turned out "fence grass", that is, a weed that no one needs, indifferent to everyone.
FILL ON THE FIRST NUMBER.
Believe it or not, in the old school, students were flogged every week, regardless of who was right and who was wrong. And if the "mentor" overdoes it, then such a spanking was enough for a long time, until the first day of the next month.
GOAL LIKE A FALCON.
Terribly poor, beggar. Usually they think that we are talking about a falcon bird. But she's not here. In fact, the "falcon" is an old military battering ram. It was a completely smooth ("bare") cast-iron ingot, mounted on chains. Nothing extra!
SIROTA OF KAZAN.
So they say about a person who pretends to be unhappy, offended, helpless in order to pity someone. But why is the orphan specifically "Kazan"? It turns out that this phraseological unit arose after the conquest of Kazan by Ivan the Terrible. Mirzas (Tatar princes), being subjects of the Russian Tsar, tried to beg him for all sorts of indulgences, complaining about their orphanhood and bitter fate.
INSIDE OUT.
Now it seems to be quite a harmless expression. And once it was associated with a shameful punishment. During the time of Ivan the Terrible, a guilty boyar was put back to front on a horse in clothes turned inside out and in this form, disgraced, was driven around the city to the whistle and ridicule of the street crowd.
LEAD BY THE NOSE.
To deceive, promising and not fulfilling the promise. This expression was associated with fairground entertainment. The gypsies led the bears by wearing a nose ring. And they forced them, the poor fellows, to do various tricks, deceiving them with the promise of handouts.
SCAPEGOAT.
This is the name of a person who is blamed for someone else's fault. The history of this expression is as follows: the ancient Jews had a rite of absolution. The priest laid both hands on the head of a live goat, thereby, as it were, shifting the sins of the whole people onto him. After that, the goat was driven out into the wilderness. Many, many years have passed, and the rite no longer exists, but the expression lives on.
SHARPEN LYASY.
Lyasy (balusters) are chiseled curly columns of railings at the porch. Only a real master could make such beauty. Probably, at first, "sharpening balusters" meant having an elegant, bizarre, ornate (like balusters) conversation. But craftsmen to conduct such a conversation by our time became less and less. So this expression began to denote empty chatter.
GRATED KALAC.
In the old days there really was such a kind of bread - "grated kalach". The dough for it was kneaded, kneaded, "rubbed" for a very long time, which made the kalach unusually lush. And there was also a proverb - "do not grate, do not mint, there will be no kalach." That is, a person is taught by trials and tribulations. The expression comes from this proverb.
NICK DOWN.
If you think about it, the meaning of this expression seems cruel - you must admit, it is not very pleasant to imagine an ax next to your own nose. In fact, everything is not so sad. In this expression, the word "nose" has nothing to do with the organ of smell. "Nose" was called a commemorative plaque, or a tag for records.
