Mathematical sayings with numbers. Proverbs, sayings and riddles about numbers for children

The language of communication is a living organism. He develops, comes to his prime, experiences difficult times of deprivation, when he is forced to use allegory.

Sometimes languages ​​die. Then they become dead. Not a single attempt by people to create an artificial language has led to lasting results. The highest form of language is proverbs, jokes, proverbs and sayings passed on from mouth to mouth. They constitute folklore, a cultural cross-section of the nation.

Folk wisdom

Let's take, for example, folk proverbs and sayings about the number 1. One African wisdom says: “To go fast, you have to go alone, to go far, you have to go together.” Indeed, following the path of life, a person makes a career alone, but grows old together with his spouse.

In folk wisdom, the voice of morality is heard: “One rotten pear will spoil the whole basket,” they say in China. “One mangy sheep will spoil the whole flock,” the Briton will say. In Russian it will be: “Whoever you get along with, that’s how you’ll gain.”

Sometimes people's observations result in proverbs and sayings about numbers, numerals, their opposition to each other and comparisons of the singular and the plural.

The Chinese will say: “One joy will drive away a hundred troubles.” And he will add: “When there are only two coppers left in your wallet, buy bread for the first, and a flower for the second.” “One flower does not bring spring,” the Azerbaijani will object. You can immediately see a thorough and thrifty person. In his worldview, one is the same as nothing. The Chechen elder will not agree. “One single spark can burn down an entire village,” he will note. And, after a pause, he adds: “One summer day feeds the whole month in winter.” The harsh conditions of the mountains gave the old man such life experience.

Over generations, wise thoughts were formed, polished, and tested. Their expression became sayings about the number 1:

  • From the same flower a bee makes honey, and a snake makes poison (Armenian).
  • The icon and the shovel (Russian) are made from the same wood.
  • There are two ears, but no one listens to two speeches at once (African).

What does one mean and what does many mean among different nations?

If we consider only sayings about the number 10 or more, we can compile an instructive and sometimes ironic selection.

Here's what different nations say about the top ten:

  • Ten people - ten shades of color (Japanese).
  • One book can teach a thousand people (Russian).
  • Ten experts are not worth one doing the job (Russian).
  • It is better to live one day as a human being than to live as a shadow for a thousand days (Chinese).
  • A smart person will hear once and guess ten times (Russian).
  • From word to deed - a hundred stages (Slavic).
  • If you get rid of one vice, ten virtues will grow (Chinese).
  • One fool will ask so many questions that ten smart people cannot answer (Chinese).
  • The strong will defeat one, knowing a thousand (Bashkir).
  • It is better to live a day as a lion than a hundred years as a sheep (Italian).

Aphorisms about family, friendship, poverty and wealth

Proverbs and sayings about numbers aptly reflect the essence of things. Here are some interesting thoughts about family:

  • Adam is the first lucky person on earth, because he did not have a mother-in-law (Jewish).
  • Three couples will never agree: two women in the same kitchen, two cats with one mouse, and two men who care for one woman (Irish).

Friendship - loyalty and betrayal, help and evasion from it - are reflected in the following words:

  • One friend is good, two is many, three is hardly possible (American).
  • One unfaithful friend is worse than a thousand enemies (Armenian).
  • Of all the people on earth, only one is needed to be happy (Russian).

Life has always been hard for the common people. Hard work does not always save you from poverty. Time and chance can lead to need. That is why the following sayings were made:

  • One was blind from hunger, the other was blind from gold (eastern).
  • Some live below the poverty line, while others live abroad (Russian).
  • If you give five, it seems like a lot, if you take six, it seems like not enough (Uzbek).

  • Miser pays twice.
  • There is nothing to choose between two evils.
  • One small lie leads to great mistrust.
  • You will find out whether parachuting will be your calling the first time.

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 truth of the people.” Mikhail Sholokhov called the proverb “clumps of reason”, “winged wisdom”.


In our speech, we use not only proverbs and sayings, but also popular expressions that are 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.


How many proverbs, sayings, and catchphrases do you know? There are countless of them, so let’s remember only those that contain numbers.



Zero without a stick(simple). A worthless, insignificant person.

Zero attention (simple). Complete indifference, indifference on the part of someone to someone or something.

Absolute zero, round zero. An insignificant person, completely useless in any matter.

Reduce to zero, reduce to zero. Deprive of all meaning and significance. (compare "to nullify").

Nothing comes from nothing. This expression belongs to the Greek philosopher Melissa and was often quoted by ancient philosophers and writers.

There's nothing new under the sun. This expression, which has become popular, is taken from a poem by the Russian writer N.M. Karamzin (inspired by biblical scripture).

We often use numbers in life. They can be found on

store windows, hear about them from the media.

Numbers tell us how much a particular product costs or

thing, what age is the child and when is his birthday,

date and time. We learn all this and much more thanks to numbers. But we encounter numbers not only in mathematics lessons, but also in other lessons, for example, reading.

Our ancestors came up with many proverbs and sayings. And a significant place among them is occupied by proverbs and sayings with numbers.

Knowledge of proverbs and sayings makes us wiser and warns us against mistakes. Proverbs always have a conclusion that is useful for everyone to remember. Many people's actions can be interpreted in accordance with proverbs. If a person and proverbs are interconnected, then proverbs play an instructive role in a person’s life. Proverbs and sayings contain the rich experience and wisdom of the people.

The use of numbers in sayings and proverbs reflects the development of digital counting among people since ancient times. Often, proverbs with numbers have a special meaning, since each number previously denoted a certain sacred concept, for example, the unity of God, two opposite principles, the “magic” seven, etc. A variety of numbers can appear in proverbs, but most often the numbers from 0 to 9.

And although, according to scientists, the main word in a proverb is not the numbers that are used in it, numbers act as symbols.

All sayings with numbers are folk wisdom. Numbers among the Russian people mean action, movement. This means that you need to think, move forward, and not sit still. Overcoming laziness is human survival at any time. That is why the wisdom of our ancestors is still contemporary today.

The album “Numbers in Proverbs and Sayings” is intended for use in mathematics lessons and in extracurricular work with students in special schools.
