Common proverbs in couplets

Folk Proverbs

This is a couplet that spans the two categories of "vernacular" and "set sentences", but it is an independent category. Common sayings and proverbs, in a broad sense, belong to "vernacular". After long-term circulation and processing among the masses, they have certain stability and pertinence. It is said to be a "set sentence" because it is not a collection of poems and words, but a collection of sayings and proverbs, thus forming related (such as "carrying water to wet your feet, setting yourself on fire") and irrelevant (such as "losing a big one because of a small one, making it round with the party") contents in a couplet.
