Good evening dear Wes An excellent compilation of old proverbs which reminded me of my college days. My English professor was a phonetics man and very fond of proverbs, who never missed a chance to throw satirical comments on us whenever we were chitchatting loudly or creating disturbance by yelling or murmuring something When some ruffians in Arts group usually History or English Major, start arguing with him he will listen with a smiling face and finally will throw down the duster in the table and say in a commanding at the same time with a hidden warning " Okay boys, that's enough, Every dog is entitled for his bark , and only once". I can still remember the frowning faces of my friends and the pin drop silence that followed. Oh those were golden days. Thanks dear Wes. All your videos are a stimulant to me and I used to share with my dear friends, who by the way are only a couple.

Thank you so much for sharing these highly useful proverbs! However, as you’ve observed, the last two ones (“ You're never too old to learn.” and “You can't teach an old dog new tricks.”) are contradicting each other. So, I wonder if one of them isn’t actually wrong … 🤔 What do you think? Best wishes, Anna

👨🏻‍🏫 Hello, Ahmed. Mr Teacher here in England. I can help you with your question. A problem might be so serious you feel as if you have fallen down. You are on the floor. But you try to find an answer, just like standing up from falling down. The answer might take time, just like the effort to stand up. You ‘pick yourself up’ by trying and trying again.
