Introduction

It would appear that nothing could be easier than writing down the definition of a proverb. Where did a proverb come from? Where can it be used? Proverbs are widely used in the society on the regular basis. Some scholars and popular writers have claimed repeatedly that proverbial language has passed from usage; however it remains an easily proven fact that proverbs are not "passer and definitely not dead. This form of language helps to express our thoughts more exactly and vividly. Proverbs contain wisdom, humor, and usually fit many purports.Oxford Dictionary of English Proverbs defines a proverb as a sentence that has been developed orally and is still used by the people of a region. It has usually come about from experience, and it is a statement that teaches learning within an experience. The World Book Encyclopedia gives a different explanation of the word: Proverb is a brief saying that presents a truth of some bit of useful wisdom. It is usually based on common sense or practical experience. The effect of a proverb is to make the wisdom it tells seem to be self-evident. The same proverb often occurs among several different peoples, True proverbs and sayings that have been passed from generation to generation, primarily by word of mouth. They may also have been put into written form.and sayings help us to learn English, because they are good example of English culture and language. In old times people were learning Latin by using proverbs. Proverbs and sayings - are useful material to show, how could one thought be understood in several different ways. They make speech alive and interesting. English proverbs and sayings have exclusive meaning, every proverb could be used in different situations, they could be understood mostly by English speaking part of the world, but not by any other people, because if foreigner translate them into his native language he will get something strange. A very little part of English proverbs and sayings can be translated and understood by words. In most cases English proverbs have the same meaning as proverbs in other languages, for example in Russian. So the main aim of an interpreter in translating English proverbs into Russian is to find the right method to translate them;why my theme is very actual and claimed.main aim of my work is:find out what proverbs and sayings are, what have they appeared for and how to use them.find out what methods of translating ST into TT exist and to search the right method to use.analysis "translating" ST into TT and try to use it on practice.

Definition of proverbs and sayings

Proverbs and sayings are very popular genre of traditional English culture. We cant say where or when proverbs appeared, but this is fact, that proverbs and sayings appeared in far antiquity and since then they have always been on the month of their folk through over the history. There are special reasons, why are proverbs and sayings are so remarkable. One of these reasons is the rhyme.

(ST) Little strokes fell great oaks

(TT) Малые удары валят большие дубы.

(ST) A stitch in time saves nine

(TT) Один стежок, сделанный вовремя, стоит девяти.most useful feature of remembering proverbs is their simplicity:

(ST) More haste, less speed

(TT) Тише едешь, дальше будешь.

(ST) Easy come, easy go

(TT) Легко пришло, легко ушло.

(ST) Like father, like son

(TT) Как отец, так и сын.is a little part of proverbs, that have more then 5 words, usually proverbs and sayings are very shot.

(ST) Boys will be Boys

(TT) Мальчишки - есть мальчишки.

(ST) Dead man tells no tales

(TT) Мертвец ничего не расскажет.

(ST) Better late, then never

(TT) Лучше поздно, чем никогда.

(ST) Practice makes perfect

(TT) Опыт творит чудеса

Difference between proverbs and sayings

Main difference between proverb and saying is that proverb expresses common thinking, and saying expresses only thinking of partial character. By linguists opinion not only proverbs can be full stopped sentence, but sayings too! Saying is the same full stopped sentence like a proverb, but it doesnt have didactical meaning.you can find sayings like that:

(ST) When pigs can fly

(TT) Когда рак на горе свиснет.

(ST) The Dutch have taken Holland!

(TT) Голландцы захватили Голландию!

(ST) When two Sundays come together

(TT) После дождичка в четверг.

(ST) When hell freezes over

(TT) Когда рай сгорит.it is very difficult to differ proverb from saying or to separate them from each other. Saying has boards from proverb, but if you add only one word to it, saying could be changed to a proverb, and on the contrary. There are some idioms which look like proverbs, but they arent proverbs at all. But idioms could be made into proverbs by adding only a word: "To cry for a moon - is an idiom it doesnt give any advices or prevents of something wrong. It is only a saying, but if we add "Dont" or something like that, we will get a good proverb, for example: (ST) Dont cry for the moon. (TT) Не сули золотые горы. (ST) Only fools cry for the moon. (TT) Только дурак сулит золотые горы.

History

There are many sources of proverbs and sayings appearing. For to be a proverb, this sentence must be popular and well known among the society. When a sentence starts to be a proverb, it becomes the part of common mind, so the proverb speaker doesnt care who has invented it. So we can say that proverbs and sayings are invented by folk. Many proverbs, adding the everyday experience, the meaning of words was transforming to the proverb during long time without any announcing of this process. The phrase "Make hay while the sun shines, which takes its appearing from everyday field-workers practice, is the example of these sort of proverbs. Every farmer sees the truth in these words, but when hundreds of people understood these words as they wanted, they realized that this sentence has several different meanings and people can use it for their own situations. After long time of practicing the method of "trys and mistakes - this phrase got its own common meaning and became a proverb. By the same way the phrase Dont put all your eggs in one basket became a proverb from the practical experience of trading dealers.the other side, many proverbs are written by definite people. If the proverb was invented in oral variant, of cause the author would be forgotten, but if the clever author invents a proverb and wrights it down, we can find (the source of these proverbs) out whom was this proverb written by. So, we can suppose that the most part of abstract proverbs and sayings were done by this way. For example:

(ST) The End justifies the means

(TT) Каково начало, таков и конец.appears from the theological doctrine in seventeen age, or "gold thought:

(ST) The wish is father to the thought

(TT) Желание быстрее, чем мысль.was said by July Cizar.who can say that these proverbs didnt become the part of traditional English culture a long before they were written down? The usage of proverbs and sayings took its rising in Shakespeares time, and perhaps the most part of proverbs, written by him existed before. But in less remarkable form. It is the same case with the Bible. Wise of its proverbs isnt original., both cases, either folk or fiction are made into one. Because of "written word someones clever words were given to people and if these words are liked by them into proverb.other important course of English Proverbs is foreign proverbs and sayings. IN this case, before be made into English these proverbs were invented and existed in Latin, Russian, French, or Spanish languages. In fact Shakespeares sayings were made proverbs very often. But we cant say exactly that all of his sayings are his own creative. May be they were taken from other oral sources and paraphrased. Many of his proverbs kept their first original form:

(ST) Brevity is the soul of wit.

(TT) Краткость - душа остроумия.

(ST) A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.

(TT) Роза будет пахнуть так же хорошо, хоть как ты ее не назовешь.

Methods of translating proverbs and sayings

Proverbs and sayings are very important part of English speech culture, so why an interpreter needs to be prepared for translating proverbs and sayings. There are some nuances and some kind of problems with translating. There are 4 main methods of translating proverbs and sayings:

1. Using of equivalent:

There is a number of English proverbs and sayings, which meaning and stylistic direction are the same with Russian ones. These Russian proverbs and sayings are English equivalents. If interpreter needs to translate a proverb, he can find its equivalent in Russian language, if the proverb has it, the interpreter can use it in translation. For example:

(ST) He laughs best, who laughs last

(TT) Смеется тот, кто смеется последним

(ST) Like father, like son

(TT) Каков отец, таков и сын

(ST) Easy come, easy go

(TT) легко пришло, легко ушло.

2. Using of variant:

In most causes an interpreter, when he translates a proverb, has to use Russian variant of English one, this variant has the same meaning, but it is expressed by another words. For example:

(ST) A cock is valiant on his own dunghill.

(TT) На своей улочке храбра и курочка.

(ST) A creaking door hangs long on its hinges.

(TT) Битая посуда два века живет.

3. Calkque method:

Sometimes an interpreter needs to translate a proverb, which has no variant or equivalent in Russian language, so he has to use calkque method to translate it by words. This method can be used only if the meaning of a proverb is clear, when it is translated in Russian. For example:

(ST) A fool may ask more questions in an hour than a wise man can answer in seven years.

(TT) Умный семь лет не ответит на вопросы, которые дурак задаст за один час.

4. Method of describing:

If the proverb has no variants or equivalents and the calking method isnt suitable in this case, an interpreter can describe the meaning of this proverb to the listener. For example:

(ST) When Queen Anne was alive

(TT) В то время, когда королева Анна была жива, это еще имело смысл, сейчас это безполезно.

Conclusion

There are many definitions of proverbs and sayings. There is a grate number of books, works and other fiction, devoted to this beautiful part of every language. I have said that proverbs and sayings were the great and beautiful part, because they appeared prom folks thoughts and minds. They express the whole historical culture of the country, because proverbs and sayings didnt appear in one day, they were forming during ages and nowadays they are also creating.course work is devoted to English proverbs and sayings and how to translate them into Russian language, how not to loose the original meaning of ST and how to express it into Russian. During my work I had a great pleasure, because it is very interesting theme to discover, and also it is very actual in interpreters job.my work I can say, that there is no language without proverbs and sayings. It is the large part of every language, and it is very interesting work to translate them, because in every language proverbs and sayings have different lexical and grammatical peculiarities. There is special methodic, including calque method, method of describing, methods of finding equivalents and variants of ST.always thought that translating English proverbs into Russian language is very difficult work, but I was wrong. It isnt very difficult. Everything depends on interpreters knowledge.text, not only proverbs and sayings, but any other texts must be carefully looked through, if it is written text. If its oral speech, an interpreter have to be very attentive and carefully listen to the speaker for not to make any mistakes. When the speaker says a proverb or saying, an interpreter mustnt translate it! He need to find the right method to translate that proverb or saying with in the language, he translates to. If he cant find the right one, he may make an attend to express the meaning of that proverb. But there are many cases, when a proverb doesnt have clear meaning…. Thats why an interpreter has to know theof the language he translates into. If he does, there wouldnt be any problems to find the proverb with the same meaning.my work I realized many things for myself. For example, I didnt know that there are a number of methods to translate proverbs and sayings with. Also I didnt know that finding an equivalent and finding a variant are two different methods, I thought that they are the same.my work I tried to describe where and when proverbs and sayings appeared, why they are needed, what proverb and sayings express, how to work with them, and how to translate them.
