Dear Seelangers,
I am turning to this wonderful group for help. With colleagues I am working
on an answer key for the Kendall-Hunt Publishing Company's textook «Mir
russkikh» to have this answer key join the «Answer Key for Mir russkih
Exercise Book» which became available last year.
We are having difficulty in answering an exercise that asks for finding
near English equivalents to four Russian proverbs. I would appreciate receiving
suggested answers. I transliterate the Russian in case the Cyrillic does
not come through.
«___ _______ _ ______, ___ _ _____ ___» (Gde lyubov i sovet, tam i gore
net)
«__ _______ _____ _______, _ _______ _________» (Ne krasna izba uglami, a
krasna pirogami)
«_ ________ ____ _________, ___ ____ __ __________» (V kotoryj den
parishsya, tot den ne starishsya)
«_____ _ ______ _________» (Doma i steny pomogayut)
Thank you in advance,
