Ethiopian Proverbs

Ethiopian Proverbs


A fool and water will go the way they are diverted

A partner in the business will not put an obstacle to it.

A silly daughter teaches her mother how to bear children

Give advice; if people don't listen, let adversity teach them

He who knows much does not speak much

If relatives help each other, what evil can hurt them


Men fear danger, women only the sight of it

Regret, like a tail, comes at the end

When the webs of the spider join, they can trap a lion

It is foolish for someone to remain thirsty when he is in the midst of water.
