Sample

Barking dogs don’t bite

One day, a Frenchman went to visit his English friend. When he came up to his friend’s house, a big dog ran out and began to bark at him. He was so frightened that he stopped. At that moment his English friend came out and saw his friend. He said, “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “Don’t you know the English proverb ‘Barking dogs don’t bite’?” “Oh, yes,” was the quick answer. “I know the proverb, and you know the proverb, the dog…Does the dog know the proverb?”
