Proverbs Slideshow/Crossword: June 5

For today, it's a new review slideshow for Groups 161, 162 and 163. 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. Ἀεὶ κολοιὸς παρὰ κολοιῷ ἰζάνει.
  2. Γλῶσσα ποῖ πορεύῃ;
  3. Δελφῖνα νήχεσθαι διδάσκεις.
  4. Ἐν ἅλῳ κρύπτῃ.
  5. Ἔχει καὶ χολὴν ὁ μύρμηξ.
  6. Ἔχεται δ' ὥσπερ πολύπους πέτρας.
  7. Ἔχων χαρίζου.
  8. Μέγα στόμα τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ.
  9. Ὁ δὲ ὄφις ἦν φρονιμώτατος πάντων τῶν θηρίων τῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
