Complete sayings. Unknown endings of famous proverbs

It is well known: the Russian language is the keeper of the wisdom of our people. A old proverbs and sayings are his spiritual treasure, a real “golden fund”, since they briefly and aptly express the instructive experience of many generations. But here’s the problem: in the conditions of modern information war, this experience, expressed verbally, has been distorted under the influence of new trends of the times.

The meaning of many is wide famous proverbs was turned inside out and changed exactly the opposite. Someone really wanted to hide the truth from us, to break the people’s original ideas about good and evil, bad and good. By using " Explanatory dictionary living Great Russian language" V.I. Dahl (1897 edition) let's try to restore the forgotten truth...

THE FAMILY HAS NOT WITHOUT A FREAK Wanting to justify the appearance of an ungodly person in a large family, we habitually say: well, it happens - there is a freak in a family. Or let’s give it a different shade: in any company there is bound to be one unlucky person. But our language speaks differently: “freak” means standing “at the clan”, under its reliable protection and patronage. And that’s why “freak” used to be called not a sick disabled person, but the first child - the strongest, the most beautiful, the smartest, who took everything first and best from his young parents. And the couple was called a family only after the birth of their first child. “Uroda” means “beauty” in some Slavic languages. That is, initially the proverb contained very deep meaning: “without a child it’s not a family”, “a family cannot exist without its first child.” Thus, the whole village, all the relatives seemed to convince the young spouses to give birth to an heir as soon as possible in order to become a full-fledged family and increase the strength of their clan-tribe.

WORK MAKES HORSES DIE How often do idle people use this expression! They like it. Although the full version of the saying goes like this: Horses die from work, but people grow stronger.

MY HUT IS ON THE EDGE Incorrect interpretation: “move away, leave me alone, I don’t know anything.” We say this today, but previously those people whose huts stood on the edge of the village had a special responsibility - they were the first to face any danger, be it an attack by enemies, a forest fire, a spring flood of a river, or a rapidly racing herd of horses. They were the ones who had to fight back. Therefore, the most courageous and strong people. When choosing a place for a house on the edge of the village, its owner seemed to be saying to his fellow villagers: “I will protect everyone’s peace.” The readiness for self-sacrifice has always been characteristic of the Russian people, which is captured in this proverb.

YOUR OWN SHIRT IS CLOSER TO THE BODY Yes, unfortunately, many contemporaries today have acquired the false belief that their own interest is most valuable, and nothing should harm personal gain. However, our ancestors pronounced these words in a completely different environment. At the funeral of a warrior who died honorably in battle, his brothers took off their linen or linen shirts and placed them in the grave - as close as possible to the body of the deceased relative. Thus they showed how much they loved him, how dear he was to them...

WORK IS NOT A WOLF – WILL NOT ESCAPE INTO THE FOREST “Take your time, lie down, rest, work will wait” - this is the meaning of this proverb in modern Russian. However, its original meaning was not at all to indulge one’s laziness by postponing important things for later. It was just the opposite! In the old days, when a wolf ran into a village, women and children immediately hid in their houses and waited for the animal to run into the forest. And their work, abandoned for a while, will not run away, will not go anywhere. Therefore, what to expect? As soon as the danger has passed, you must immediately begin work left in the garden, in the yard or around the house.

DON’T OPEN YOUR MOUTH FOR SOMEONE ELSE’S LOAF “Everyone loves to eat someone else’s food for free” - we filled this proverb with such narrowly destructive content today. But the story here is again of the exact opposite nature. There used to be a custom: before everyone sat down at the table, the owner would go outside from the hut and shout loudly: “Is anyone hungry?” That is, the owner opened his mouth wide open and invited all the hungry to his loaf: neighbors, relatives, beggars, random passers-by. It’s no good when everyone eats, but someone remains hungry.

DEBT IS BEAUTIFUL IN PAYMENT Perhaps, today this is one of the most frequently used proverbs: many creditors angrily demand that debtors give back what they have taken, calling them, harassing them, threatening them. Trouble, and that’s all... In fact, this proverb teaches you to forgive debts. Our wise ancestors acted in a simple-minded Christian way: when lending something to someone, they never expected a return, much less asked or demanded it. They were sincerely happy to help everyone in need just like that, without any self-interest. When the debt was finally returned, they blushed deeply: they were ashamed to accept it back...

Just think about WHAT WE HAVE LOST! How high were the morals of our wise ancestors, and how reduced we were in comparison with them...

Let's give a few more examples of truncated proverbs.

A holy place is never empty.AND AN EMPTY PLACE IS NOT HOLY!

We all know many proverbs, but often we do not realize that they have a continuation. Sometimes it was lost in the depths of centuries, sometimes it was invented by some witty person for a well-known proverb, but, one way or another, it is often what opens new meaning old truth. And sometimes this continuation exists in several versions, which turn a well-known idea into a completely different direction...

As you can see, the missing continuations of proverbs and sayings not only make them more detailed in content, but often radically change the meaning of what was said. In addition, there are a number of sayings that we use in full version, however, we completely misunderstand their essence. Here are some examples.

Every family has its black sheep
Wanting to justify the appearance of an ungodly person in a large family, we habitually say: well, it happens - there is a black mark in a family. Or let’s give it a different shade: in any company there is bound to be one unlucky person. But our language speaks differently: “freak” means standing “at the clan”, under its reliable protection and patronage. And that’s why “freak” used to be called not a sick disabled person, but the first child - the strongest, the most beautiful, the smartest, who took everything first and best from his young parents. And the couple was called a family only after the birth of their first child. “Uroda” means “beauty” in some Slavic languages. That is, initially the proverb had a very deep meaning: “without a child, this is not a family,” “a family cannot exist without its first child.” Thus, the whole village, all the relatives seemed to convince the young spouses to give birth to an heir as soon as possible in order to become a full-fledged family and increase the strength of their clan-tribe.

My house is on the edge
Incorrect interpretation: “move away, leave me alone, I don’t know anything.” We say this today, but previously those people whose huts stood on the edge of the village had a special responsibility - they were the first to face any danger, be it an attack by enemies, a forest fire, a spring flood of a river, or a rapidly racing herd of horses. They were the ones who had to fight back. Therefore, the bravest and strongest people lived “in the huts on the edge.” When choosing a place for a house on the edge of the village, its owner seemed to be saying to his fellow villagers: “I will protect everyone’s peace.” The readiness for self-sacrifice has always been characteristic of the Russian people, which is captured in this proverb.

Your shirt is closer to your body
Yes, unfortunately, many contemporaries today have acquired the false belief that their own interest is most valuable, and nothing should harm personal gain. However, our ancestors pronounced these words in a completely different environment. At the funeral of a warrior who died honorably in battle, his brothers took off their linen or linen shirts and placed them in the grave - as close as possible to the body of the deceased relative. Thus they showed how much they loved him, how dear he was to them...
