Abstract:
This revised collection covers the most widely used proverbs in English, drawing on the resources of the Oxford Dictionaries team for the most up-to-date research. The new edition adds many sayings that have gained currency in recent years, such as 'better out than in' and 'if you can't be good, be lucky'. Explanations have been added or expanded for hundreds of proverbs, and examples of usage updated.
