Am 80 years of age.16/16.Found these so easy to remember with no hesitating at all.Perhaps in a roundabout way they so remind me of the wise proverbs from the bible🙏
The background score is amazing.These tests help to keep the mind sharp .And when you put them to use in speech or in writing ,they enhance both So thank you for putting together these ins and outs of the English language for us English enthusiasts.
I’ve been taking a lot of these quizzes after my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and now in a memory care center 🥺 I’m 59 and trying to keep my mind sharp😉 Thanks for these☺️
15/16 Oh I loved this quiz I have heard my mother speak out these proverbs so many times in out native language that always had me wondered Where'd she learns all this from and induced my curiousity to know more. 'Every cloud has a silver lining' is my favorite btw 😍
I run programs for homebound seniors and came across your quiz. Used it today and loved how well you have timed it between proverbs. Some quizzes I find are timed in only a few seconds and since I must read the question because some folks have vision problems, there just isn't enough time for a senior to think and then answer. Very frustrating!
That’s a wonderful activity for them, Linda O’Donnell🙏 Maybe you could try, simply, pausing it and set your own time limit for them?? Just a suggestion that I hope is helpful ☺️
16/16 I've been hearing all of these old sayings all of my life. I grew up in the late 60's through early 70's. So this quiz was super easy! It was fun to take and a no brainer. I luv these quizzes.
I was born in Indianapolis and I was raised in Milwaukee. I used to hear my foster great grandmother and mother say these old adages. So I was taught these old sayings, in a household, from an early age that still hold true today. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
Perfect score. It wasn't that difficult because most of the proverbs exist in Italian as well. Anyway, in Italian they are not simple sentences, they do sound much more musical, like singing a little song 🎵🎶
Too many cooks spoil the broth. This was one of the first proverbs I learnt and I was 12 years old . I am going to turn 70 next July 2nd. I can clearly remember, holding back all these years. I love teaching and learning English
I wasn’t educated in the 50’s but I had a lot of smart people around me and a very inquisitive mind. I was also have adhd which makes to find the answered to my questions and the ability to remember obscure info.
Half way through...I knew the answers to all without even having the multiple choice !! So I got fed up waiting for the answers...to long to choose...you snooze you loose...🙃
16/16. These various English tests must be for ESL students and/or school students in general, because they're very, very easy. However, I'm nearly 70, so learned things back when schools still actually taught kids useful things, unlike today.
My great-grandson is in 4th grade and he is receiving an excellent education at his school. It is hard being a teacher today ,they are doing the best they can. My grandson is reading at a 12th grade level, he has an amazing teacher so give them their due They work very hard
15 /16. Many of them are known in my country. My favourite proverb is " You can 't judge a book by its cover ". I appreciate it. Thank you so much for the perfect quiz. 👍😍💙💛
15 out of 16...never heard that one about the sleeping dogs! Wish I could learn more. I'm from Mexico and it is not easy to find a language shool where they teach you proverbs. Ty for sharing.
The person (or obstacle) isn't attacking so leave it be, it's over. Let it be really. Pick your battles. Some other ways that I understand the saying. 🤓
Twice I had to look a little harder at the proverb in question, but most of the time I completed the proverbs before the answers even showed up. 16/16.
Excellent Sister! That's also a good idea for a channel of your own, interpreting languages! I would subscribe, pay and participate without hesitation!🥰
I scored 15 out of 16. Got the SLEEPING DOG proverb wrong. I have read another version of the proverb: BARKING DOG SELDOM BITES, where SELDOM is substituted with NEVER. Such online tests are very useful for refreshing one's memory and sharpening the language skills. Thank you very much for arranging this.
15. I missed the one on charity starts at home. I am very generous so I must have learned that and never knew the fact. My parents were very generous. Time, patience and money and a whole lot more. I was lucky to be their kid!
16 out of 16, age 63, thank God for my Grandmother. She taught me most of these growing up.

I got that one wrong too.
The person (or obstacle) isn't attacking so leave it be, it's over. Let it be really. Pick your battles. Some other ways that I understand the saying. 🤓
I was also of that era.I guess we never forget the wisdom of our youth.
