Sayings

What are Sayings❓

It´s probably that you´ve used sayings, but you´ve never known that those are called sayings.

They are well-known phrases or statements that expresses something about life that most 👨👩 believe is wise and true. They have idiomatic meanings.

For example:

Every ☁  has a silver lining.

Maybe you got 😕 when you read it or maybe you´ve just guessed the meaning. Well, don´t be 😟, don´t 😢. Let me tell you that sayings are idioms, so they are a bit hard to guess.

OriginThe origin obviously comes from the incident of Van Gogh, the painter cutting his left ear off after a series of mental illnesses. But the literary origin of the phrase is not available. Van Gogh, after cutting his ear off and rendering himself totally deaf continued to play loud music and tried to sing along too. He was always off key of course. So the expression also refers to someone who can’t sing very well.Source: theidioms.co

This phrase means that every sad o hard situation has a positive side.
