Proverbs Slideshow/Crossword: May 24

For today, it's a new review slideshow for Groups 158, 159 and 160. Here's the post with the details about how the slideshows work, and there's a random cat at the bottom of the post! Plus more cats.

The slideshow is embedded in the blog post, and you can also access today's slideshow directly, full-sized view. And remember: each time you see the English translation on a slide, you can click to access the original blog post with the notes for each proverb.


There's also a crossword puzzle PDF that you can print; here's a screenshot of the puzzle and key. :-)


These are the proverbs, linked back to their blog post:
  1. Ἀετὸν ἵπτασθαι διδάσκεις.
  2. Ἄκουε πάντα.
  3. Ἀκούσας νόει.
  4. Βασίλεια δ' εἰκών ἐστιν ἔμψυχος θεοῦ.
  5. Βοῦς ἐφ' ἑαυτῷ κονιεῖται.
  6. Γέρων δὲ καὶ μῦς οὐχ ἁλισκεται πάγῃ.
  7. Εἰς τὸ πῦρ ἐκ τοῦ κάπνου.
  8. Ἐκτὸς πηλοῦ πόδας ἔχεις.
  9. Ἐν φρέατι κυσὶ μάχεσθαι.
  10. Ἡ γλωσσ' ὀμωμοχ' ἡ δὲ φρὴν ανώμοτος.
  11. Ἡ σοφία υἱοὺς αὐτῆς ἀνύψωσεν.
  12. Οὐδεὶς μετ' ὀργῆς ἀσφαλῶς βουλεύεται.
  13. Τίς ἐστιν ἡ μήτηρ μου καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοί;
  14. Ὑπὲρ εὐσεβείας καὶ λάλει καὶ μάνθανε.
  15. Ὥρα τὰ πάντα τοῦ βίου κρίνει καλῶς.
