    These proverbs are very impressive indeed. Thank you so much. This is South Sudanese Dinka language proverbs. The beggar can not ask for a big bowl. The meaning is the person who is begging, can not have a say over whatever have been given to them. If what have been given to them is small they would just be great ful, and say nothing at all.

    One that I heard often (and not just for carpentry): "Measure twice, cut once", meaning it's easier to double-check something beforehand than to do it over. Another one I heard often and occasionally followed: "It's easier to apologize than to get permission".

    Greetings from Estonia.
    We say here like this when talking about laziness: The mouse is not running to the mouth of the sleeping cat.
    And similar to your expression with the hay.... I googled and found the same expression in English:
    to strike while the iron is hot. Rough translation from Estonian would be "hammer the iron til it is still hot".

    We use popular proverbs in Egypt (Arabic) for example. (The earring gives those who have no ears) "in a mocking way". It means that an unworthy person gets something that he dosn’t deserve it or he is not qualified to get that opportunity like a job, marriage, earning a large fortune without getting tired, we always use to derogate the person who gets the opportunity. For example, when a poor man got married to a rich and beautiful woman, or when an unsuccessful person gets a good profession.

    In Morocco we have literally the same proverbs as : the necessity is the mother of invention.
    Easy come, easy go.
    Like mother, like daughter.
    However,
    - make hay while the sun shines, we say: strike the steel while it's hot.
    - A leopard doesn't change its spots, we have 2 sayings here:
    1. A bad habit always stays.
    2. The dancer never forgets the shoulder movement. ( coz dancers in Morocco move their shoulders while dancing)

    «Dormirse en los laureles»
    «Resting on one's laurels»
    It means:
    Neglecting or abandoning oneself in the activity undertaken, trusting in the successes that have been achieved. That is to say that after having achieved some success, we relax, we do not try any more because we pretend that we are always valued and we are reminded of how good we were.

    Hello teacher,
    «A quién madruga Dios le ayuda»
    "Who get up early, will be helped by God"
    More or less it means that:
    If you don't be lazy and work hard, God will help you sooner or later.
    «No dejes para mañana lo que puedas hacer hoy»
    "Do not leave for tomorrow what you can do today "
    It means:
    Don't be lazy!
    Thanks for your interesting lessons. I appreciate them a lot ☺🤗

    The head that doesn't hurt, isn't covered with a handkerchief.= If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
    Losing my head or gaining a hat = I'll cross that bridge, when I get there.
