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.

The culture of our people includes many elements that differ from each other in their structure and construction. These include songs, fairy tales, riddles, as well as proverbs and sayings. The latter are short and succinct oral sayings that should be understood not literally, but figuratively.
Types of proverbs
Over many centuries, many proverbs and sayings related to different topics have been formed. Some refer to natural conditions, others describe the nature of the situation, others are associated with animals and the way of life of people. There are proverbs and sayings regarding determining the weather on different days. The proverb with number is one of the most common expressions and can belong to a wide variety of categories. At the same time, it can be separated into a separate category.
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 numbers from 0 appear up to 9, for example, proverbs and sayings with the number 7.
Proverbs with one
Sayings containing the number 1 are quite common. Their meaning can be very different and characterize conflict situations. A typical example is the following saying: “one man in the field is no warrior.” It shows that no matter how skillful and strong a person is, he can only cope with the problem with the help of someone else. The next proverb with the number 1 is: “one foot is here, the other is there.” This expression figuratively shows that a person moves very quickly, and has no sooner left a given place than he has already returned. Most often, this proverb is used as a parting word when it is necessary to keep the time of absence to a minimum.
Another expression containing a unit is “one beaten is better than two unbeaten.” It means gaining experience that will help to cope with difficulties in the future, while those who have not received experience - the “unbeaten” may not be able to cope with the situation. And such a saying as “birds of a feather” speaks of the similarity of two people or that a person is well suited for something.
Proverb with number 2
Two appears in short sayings no less often than one. One of the famous expressions can be called “if you chase two hares, you won’t catch either.” The meaning is interpreted to mean that you should not do two things at once - each of them may end up being bad. Therefore, it’s worth doing one thing and then moving on to another.
“Two boots are alike” - this can mean that two people are well suited to each other, they have similar opinions and act similarly. “Like two peas in a pod” - they say about something that has a strong similarity. It can be an inanimate object, a living creature or a person.
Proverb with number 3
The number 3 is not inferior in popularity when used in short sayings. One of them is “getting lost in three pines.” This means getting confused in a simple situation, not finding a way out where in fact everything is simple. “They’ve been waiting for the promised thing for three years” - number 3 shows that you will have to wait for something for a very long time, or you won’t be able to wait at all.
“Three boxes” means a lot, most often this is what they say about a lie. The number 3 most often means a large amount of something, since when counting appeared, at first there were only one and two, three appeared much later.
Sayings with numbers 4, 5,6
The most famous sayings with the four can be called: “sit within 4 walls.” This means being isolated from other people, not seeing anyone, being constantly alone. “On all four sides” means anywhere, when someone is being driven, or, conversely, they are letting go and do not want to know where the person will go.
Sayings with the number 5, the most famous of which is “like the back of your hand.” It means to know something well, thoroughly. “Like a dog’s fifth leg” is an unnecessary element that can be completely dispensed with. These number expressions are not as common as proverbs with the number 7.
The number 6 is found much less frequently in various folk sayings, and they are less well known. An example would be “the bast shoes were lost, they were looking around the yards, there were 5, now there are 6.” The meaning of this proverb may indicate inaccuracies in carrying out any business.
Popularity of number 7
Proverbs and sayings with occupy a special place among others. The number 7 has always been given important sacred meaning; even in Biblical texts one can find numerous references to this number. It is not surprising that proverbs with the number seven are so numerous.
A striking example is “measure seven times, cut once.” This is perhaps one of the best number proverbs. Its meaning implies careful thought before making a final decision. “Seven miles of jelly to slurp” is very far, a long distance that can be overcome in vain. “One plows, and seven wave their hands” - in a team, only one person (or a minority) works effectively, the rest do not bring any benefit.
“Seven do not wait for one” - it means that one person should focus on the others, not delay them and not force them to change plans because of him. Proverbs with the number 7, of which there are many, reflect a person’s attitude towards this number, which was previously considered sacred, mysterious and mysterious.
Proverbs with other numbers
As for other numbers in sayings, there are fewer of them than with one, two or seven. Thus, the most famous expression containing the number 8 can be called “spring and autumn - there are eight weather conditions per day.” It implies the variability of the weather during these transitional seasons, when warm and sunny can suddenly change to cold and cloudy.
The number 9 is even rarer. An example would be “nine people are the same as ten.” The same expression can serve as an example of a proverb containing several numerals.
Other proverbs and sayings with numbers include references to the numbers 10, 25, 40, 100, 1000. These are the meanings that can be found in sayings. “One smart person leads ten crazy people”, “forty years is a woman’s age”, “hands can overcome one, but knowledge can overcome a thousand” and others like them. In addition, there are proverbs containing several numbers at once, as well as proverbs with the numbers 0, 33, 12. Other numbers in proverbs and sayings are very rare.
The effect of sayings
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. There are proverbs that were born in the Internet era. They are no less interesting, each with its own story. But the main thing remains action.
