proverb词源中文解释
公元1300年左右，在 boke of Prouerbyys 中，这部旧约圣经作品源自12世纪的古法语 proverbe，直接来自拉丁语 proverbium，意为“一句常言，古谚语，格言”，字面意思是“提出的话”，由 pro “向前”（源自 PIE 根词 *per-（1）“向前”）和 verbum “词”（参见 verb）组成。因此，在圣经意义上，“一种谜一般的话语； 一种需要解释的神秘或神谕性的说法。”
从公元1300年左右开始，一般用于指本土的谚语，“简短而有力的句子，经常以口头方式重复，表达经验或观察得出的众所周知的真理或共同事实； 一种流行的谚语，简明有力地表达一些实用的格言； 一句智慧的箴言：通常以隐喻的形式和韵文的形式表达，并且有时带有头韵”[世纪词典]。
到14世纪末，它的意思变为“耻辱，嘲笑的对象”。古英语中的箴言书是 cwidboc，源自 cwide “言语，谚语，箴言，讲道”，与 cwiddian “说话，讲话，说，讨论”有关； cwiddung “言语，谚语，报道”。
