Sayings and humour
- Proverbs, puns & quotes convey wisdom or humour using concise language
- A proverb is a short saying that is used to give advice about life – We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it.
- Puns are a play on words which sound identical but have double meanings - What happens to a frog’s car when it breaks down? It gets toad away!
- Quotes are often the points of view of famous people which are meant to inspire or make us think - As Oscar Wilde said: ‘Be yourself; everyone else is taken.’
