Au chant on connait l’oiseau.
On reconnaît un oiseau par son chant.
Знать птицу по перьям, а молодца по речам.
Птичка крыльями гордится, женщина – мужем.
Птица крыльями сильна, жена мужем красна.
Красна пава перьем, а жена мужем.
Mann und Weib sind ein Leib.
Was Gott zusammengefügt hat, soll derMensch nicht scheiden.
Gleich und Gleich gesellt sich gern.
Mann und Frau sind derselbe Satan.
Ehen werden im Himmel geschlossen
