Help us write down the proverbs of Lango

Proverbs are how the Lango teach children, settle disputes and speak about life. We would rather publish nothing than publish a proverb that is wrong, so this page only shows sayings that come from Lango speakers and have been reviewed by language reviewers.

In the dictionary, a proverb or parable is carokop.

  1. Write the proverb in Leb Lango, exactly as you heard it.
  2. Add its English meaning and when it is used.
  3. Choose your clan so the saying is credited to where it comes from.
