R.E.P. : Russian Expressions & Proverbs

I would like to start a series of sharing Russian Expressions & Proverbs.

Since I live in Russia, and I'm half Russian, I know a lot about Russian culture. I studied here at school 4 years, then let it to Algeria where I lived 12 years, and comeback here again to study at the University, then get married, and now I have a four-year-old son.

So, of course I know a lot about the culture and I like so many expressions and proverbs. That give me the opportunity to always share a good proverb or an expression, translate it, and write about what I understand about it.

So, today's proverb is :

---

«Семь раз отмерь, один раз отрежь»

---

That means : ''"Seven times measure cut once".

I think that's clear and maybe something similar is in other languages. And of course, we have always to think twice before doing something. Because sometimes we may regret a lot of doing that.

I think the meaning is clear. And I'll be sharing more in the future. ☺

Learning a culture, is learning how to be a better human !

That's why I love languages.
