Latin proverbs
Permalink   


Argh...I need help from anyone who understands Latin!!!!

My teacher gave as ten Latin proverbs and told us that we can use any source to help us figure them out. Here they are:

1) Ad aureo piscari hemo.

2) Caecus non judicat de colore.

3) Unus cum gemino calculus hoste perit.

4) Non est venator quiuis per cornea flator.

5) Sicut qui mel comedit multun, no est ei bonum.

6) Graecum est; non potest legi.

7) Cum grano salis.

8) Latet anguis in herba.

9) Cave tibi cane muto, aqua silente.

10)Sero venientibus ossa.

Please help me!
