Answers. He laughs best, who laughs last. Better late than never. Tastes differ. There is no smoke without fire. Pride goes before a fall. It is no use crying over spilt milk. The early bird catches the warm. Сміється той, хто сміється останній. Краще пізно, ніж ніколи. Немає друзів за смаками. Немає диму без вогню. Хто високо літає, низько падає. Сльозами горю не допоможеш. Хто рано встає, тому Бог дає.

Answers. The eye is the mirror of the soul. It is never too late to learn. A man is known by the company he keeps. Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. All in good time. What is done cannot be undone. First think, then speak. Очі – дзеркало душіВесь вік живи – весь вік вчись. Скажи мені, хто двій друг і я скажу, хто ти. Ніколи не відкладай на завтра те,що можна зробити сьогодніВсякому овочу свій час. Що з возу впало, те пропало. Слово не горобець, вилетить, не спіймаєш».

Answers. East or West, home is best. Appearances are deceitful. The devil is not so black as he is painted. Don’t trouble troubles until troubles trouble you. Custom is a second nature. So many men, so many minds. В гостях добре, але вдома краще. Зовнішність оманлива. Не такий страшний диявол, як його малюють. Не буди лихо, доки тихо. Звичка – друга натура. Скільки людей, стільки й думок.
