According to me proverbs are same all around the world it just changes words and meaning from one country to another. The proverbs above are many same but in India we don’t say the proverb we just give an example for the same. As they think that proverb are sometime difficult to understand so they give the example for all. I would like to write some of the examples for the same in my language and will explain those in English ;).

1)    Rome wasn’t built in a day.

There is the same proverb but with example in my language. It says “Sabara ka fal mitha hota hai” it means “Wait for some time for getting the good results”.

2)    Never promise a fish until it’s caught.

The proverb with same meaning is “Wade vahi karo jo nibha sako” and it means “promise only the things which you can do, don’t promise the thing which you can’t do.

3)    Stars are not seen by sunshine.

“Din mai tare nahi dikhate” it means “you can’t see the stars in the day” it means don’t think of the things which you can’t do.

4)    Write the bad things that are done to you in sand, but write the good things that happen to you on a piece of marble.

The proverb which is similar is shorter than this but means the same. It’s “purani bato pai mitti dalo”. It says us that “Throw the sand in old and bad memories” it means the thing which has happened to you just forget those things and carry on the new pages of life.

5)    Skillful sailors aren't made by smooth seas.

In my country the example for the same is “Kamyabi bade mahenat se milti hai” and it means that “Hardwork is key to success”

Difficulties and practice make a man perfect.
