Proverbs and Sayings of the Russian People

Proverbs and Sayings of the Russian People

Vladimir Dahl, the creator of the unmatched "Explanatory Dictionary of the Living Great Russian Language," a brilliant connoisseur of folk speech and a passionate admirer of sharp, vivid folk words, was also a collector of folk proverbs, sayings, and phrases... for various occasions. The result of his nearly fifty years of work was the collection "Proverbs and Sayings of the Russian People," unique and perhaps still the only one of its kind in terms of volume and diversity of material. All proverbs and sayings are grouped by themes; it turned into a real encyclopedia of sharp folk sayings.
