Learn common English proverbs

Proverbs are traditional sayings that give advice or state a general truth, such as “Every cloud has a silver lining” and “Let sleeping dogs lie”. Guess each proverb from the picture, learn what it means and when people use it, then practise saying it yourself. Using a well-chosen proverb naturally can make your spoken English, and your IELTS or TOEFL speaking answers, sound more fluent.
