Sharing Proverbs from Different Cultures

In pronunciation class this week, students shared different proverbs from their countries to practice the final “s” sound in words.

We loved these proverbs so much that we wanted to share them. Here they are:

  • “With time, everything is possible. ” – Baptiste from France says this is a common saying in his country.
  • “Flowers may bloom again, but a person never has the chance to be young again.” – One of Xinyi’s favorite proverbs from China.
  • “A kind saying makes you warm in the cold winter. An evil saying makes you cold in the hot summer.”   – Mingwei from China shared this with us.
Students featured above: Baptiste A. (France), Payton D. (class peer mentor from Illinois), Xinyi Z. (China), and Mingwei X. (China).
