Berikut ini saya tampilkan beberapa peribahasa (proverbs) terkenal dalam bahasa Inggris. Semoga bermanfaat ketika kita berinteraksi dengan native speaker.

Meaning : One is judged according to the friends he has.
artinya: perilaku seseorang (bisa) dinilai dari temannya.

A little learning is a dangerous thing.
Meaning : One should have full knowledge, rather than spreading incomplete information.
