Spanish Proverbs, English Cliches!
![]() |
It's time for more practice. Usually we try to translate languages verbatim. What happens? The meaning gets lost in translation. I’m learning, after trial and error, it’s the meaning we need to translate. If I give you a Spanish proverb and its literal translation, will you be able to identify the English cliché? Let’s see. Enjoy, have fun; and if you can think of any other suitable English clichés, let me know. I think this quiz should be fun. Thank you for taking the quiz.
