An isometric stanza is called when all the lines that compose it have the same measure , that is, they have the same number of syllables. However, it is called a heterometric stanza when they do not have the same number of syllables. In addition, the stanzas receive different names depending on the number of lines they have.. From 2 to 14 lines, and omitting those of 7, 9 and 11 (given their little or no tradition in Spanish), all the stanzas are classified. For example, of two stanzas it would be the couplet, of three the tercet, of four the quartet, the serventesio, the redondilla or the quatrain, of five verses the quintilla, the lira or the quintet, of six the sextet or the couplet of broken foot , of eight the octavilla, the copla de arte mayor or the real octave, of ten the tenth or spinel or of fourteen the sonnet.

The sonnet is a composition of 14 hendecasyllable lines (of 11 syllables), composed of two quatrains (4-line stanza) and two triplets (3-line stanzas). The birth of the sonnet is located in Sicily from where it passed to central Italy. In the fourteenth century Dante Alighieri's love sonnets, dedicated to his beloved Beatrice, were very important . But the most famous sonnetist of the century was the poet Petrarca in his Cancionero. Thanks to Petrarch it spread through European literatures. The sonnet is used in Spain by poets such as Lope de Vega, Góngora, Calderón de la Barca, Sor Juana or Cervantes who used the variant of sonnet with estrambote.

The lyre

The lira is composed of five lines in which the first, the third and the fourth are seven syllables, and the second and fifth are hendecasyllables.

Reading comprehension

What is reading comprehension?

The dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy defines the word reading as "The interpretation of the meaning of a text". Reading a text does not imply that we are understanding its content, one reason may be that we do not know the meaning of some words or that we do not interpret what the author wants to express, but another reason may be that we are not concentrating, we can read and think about something else at the same time, we must correct this problem from school age by promoting reading comprehension strategies. An ideal way to encourage reading as a daily habit in the little ones is through short kids stories like the ones we offer for free at Kahniyan.

QUICK ACCESS:-

Reading comprehension is the ability to understand what is read, taking into account the global understanding of the text and also the understanding of words. When we read we activate the ability to understand, that is, learn the relevant ideas of a text and relate them to the concepts that already have meaning for the reader. The written text today has reached enormous importance (press, advertisements, instant messages, work environment, etc.), in some specific cases it has displaced oral language , as is the case with the new smartphones and all their messaging utilities. . Reading comprehension is an essential part of correct cultural literacy that allows the kids to incorporate into society and adult life. This must be encompassed in various contexts and with varied types of texts that can start with the most significant narrative for kids such as stories and poetry and continue with more complex texts close to science. Our short proverbs for kids can also be of great help to you , an extensive compilation of popular sayings with which the little ones can improve their reading comprehension, work on their memory and learn to recite the ones they like the most.

Reading comprehension levels

The comprehensive readings that we offer in Primary World are based on texts with a playful and recreational purpose from their simplest expressions, favoring attractive and pleasant experiences around reading, promoting the reading habit, while at the same time being pedagogical instruments aimed at perfecting the analysis. of texts in various communicative situations. Comprehension of texts is of vital importance in learning, starting from the comprehension of simple sentences to that of more complex texts. In this sense, it is necessary to choose the most suitable readings for kids, those that adapt to the level indicated for their age. In addition, they must be attractive, since this ensures that the kids pays attention to what he reads and is able to explain it later. So it is advisable to use short and pleasant paragraphs, which keep the kids interested.

Difference between a saying and a proverb

Although today we know them as synonyms, linguistically they present notable differences: the proverb handles cultured expressions and of a certain complexity, in addition to the fact that, in general, we group them according to their geographical origin. While the proverb has a popular and informal essence, and its diffusion is massive, especially in the Spanish language.

Seven characteristics to identify them

The authors are usually unknown, since passing from generation to generation are undergoing modifications. But there are also biblical and literary phrases that have become part of the popular proverb.
Its theme is as broad as the language itself. We assure you that you can find a saying for any situation you think of.
They show part of the idiosyncrasy of a country, so although many Spanish-speaking countries share the same proverbs, it is likely that they do not have the same meaning or the same words.
Its purpose is to convey some message of warning, advice or teaching.
Being short phrases, colloquial language, with rhythm and rhyme, their memorization and repetition are quite simple.
Although they do not always rhyme, their structure is based on literary figures such as antithesis or parallelism. Also in prose and verse, which facilitates learning and repetition.
Incredible as it may seem, they arise from specific places and periods that make that situation a moment immortalized in history through a clever phrase.

Types of proverbs and sayings

They can be grouped into four large categories and from these comes an endless number of subcategories:

1.According to the content

It can be about friendship, life, nature, heartbreak... some of the most popular and that you have surely heard are:

1.1 Life:

To bad weather, good face: its objective is to make the child understand that he should not give up or get depressed in the face of life's adversities, that he should take everything with positivism and a good attitude because of the bad times we go through, he is one of those who the more we learn.
Shoemaker to your shoes: teaches him that he should not get involved in other people's affairs and should only give his opinion on what he understands and affects him directly. It is said that it originated in the fourth century BC when a shoemaker criticized the Greek painter Apelles, who fell on him with this iconic phrase.
Flies do not enter a closed mouth: although the origin of this saying is not known precisely, it is believed that it dates back to the 14th century and is of Arabic-Andalusian origin. And its objective is to make the person understand that it is better to be silent than to have to apologize for what is said.
Who gets up early, God helps: it is a recommendation to be diligent in everything you do to be successful. It is a phrase that finds a literary modification in "Don Quixote": "He who does not get up early with the sun, does not enjoy the day."
Asking you get to Rome: ideal for children who are shy when wanting to answer questions. Its purpose is to make them understand that it is okay to ask for explanations or clarifications before any question that arises.

1.2 Nature:

Like this, like a chip: it is a phrase to explain that everything resembles its origin: children inherit the appearance and behavior of their parents. Although it is not known who invented this hilarious phrase, José María de Pereda used it in one of his works as a title in 1885.
Year of snow, year of goods: if the children complain about the weather, you can use this saying that tries to predict that prosperous times are approaching.
Although the mona dresses in silk, mona stays: she tries to teach that we cannot hide who we are by changing our exterior. It is a phrase that is often modified a lot since the word "mona" is considered offensive by some, so the sentence is omitted or changed to: " The habit does not make the monk ."

1.3 Studies:

Books and years make a wise man: it is a saying that explains to the child that only through experience and education can the knowledge necessary to be a wise and educated person be achieved.
Doing and undoing you learn: it is ideal if you are learning some craft, since it teaches the little ones that all learning involves a process of trial and error until perfection is achieved.
What is well learned is known forever: perfect if you want to encourage them to learn because if they study with dedication, effort and interest, the knowledge will take hold in their memory and they will be able to use it in their lives.

2. According to the theme that inspires you

It encompasses a large subcategory of sayings that depend on the nature where they were born. Among the most popular themes you can find:

2.1 Religious:

Santa Rita, what is given, is not taken away: it teaches that what is given as a gift cannot be asked for in return. Its origin is imprecise, but it is known through a legend that a maiden asked this Saint for a boyfriend, and her wish was granted, but shortly after he escaped and the maiden went to claim with this ingenious phrase.
God squeezes, but does not suffocate: it is a phrase that advises us to always trust in the will of God and that he does not give us more burden than we can carry.
To God praying and with the mallet giving: its original meaning is that it is good to entrust ourselves to God, but we must do our part so that everything goes according to our wishes. Although currently it has a literary meaning, since it is said to people who pray to God and in turn harm others. Since 1929 it is a saying that is widely used and its meaning varies according to the context and the person who says it.

2.2 Romantics:

The strong heart overcomes misfortune: it explains that one must not collapse in the face of difficult circumstances, but must take them with courage.
Each sheep with its partner: advises us to look for a partner with similar tastes to ours. Although its origin is not known, its first documentation was in the Book of Sayings and Sentences of Mosén , by Pedro Vallés in 1549.
On Tuesday neither get married nor embark: it is a rather superstitious phrase, which considers Tuesday as bad luck, so it is recommended not to do anything important or risky. This is said because it is associated with Mars, the god of war in Greek mythology, so we assume that this phrase dates from before Christ.
Esteem and opportunity are good for the heart: it means that we only appreciate people when we miss them. It is not a saying that is widely used today, but it does perfectly teach the little ones to value the people they love the most.

2.3 Christmas:

On Christmas Eve and Christmas, the grill in the house is hotter: it is a sentence widely used to indicate that this festive season is when the best dinners are prepared to share with the family. It also advises to share with ours what we have taking advantage of this festivity.
Christmas is sharing and donating: say this phrase to the little ones in the house so that they learn that the meaning of Christmas is not gifts and copious dinners, but rather it is about getting closer to the family and sharing what they have with the least favored.
Whoever you see in espadrilles for Christmas, do not ask how they are: advice that tells you not to make prejudiced comments to people who have financial problems at this time. It is ideal that you tell children who like to show off their gifts so that they learn a little humility.

3. According to its extension

This is an additional category where it is classified according to the number of words that the saying has. Although they are short sentences, some are modified so much that their length grows or shortens in the process. Such is the case of:

3.1 Long proverbs:

Good bearing and good manners open main doors: it means that as long as we are polite and take care of our appearance, we will have a chance of getting what we are looking for. It's a saying you can say to little ones when you're trying to teach them manners.
Fortune is a pile of sand: one wind brings it and another takes it away: it teaches that money and luck are not everything in life and that we must be humble.
Who comes close to a good tree, good shade shelters him: he is very popular and explains that it is an advantage to have good interpersonal relationships with people of influence.

3.2 Short proverbs:

Laziness, poverty key: ideal if you want to teach children that everything they want they must get with effort and work.
Two don't fight if one doesn't want to: it is advice for the little ones to always keep calm and they will be victorious in any situation of discord that comes their way.
All that glitters is not gold: the purpose of this saying is for them to learn that not everything that seems good really is.

4. idiomatic expressions

They are referential value sentences that represent an image of something concrete and whose literal meaning differs from what is really being expressed. That is, it is an expression not linked to its literal meaning, but rather to the situation in which it occurs. Some examples of these types of proverbs are:

More lost than Turkish in the mist: its objective is to indicate that a person is disoriented. Although its origin is uncertain, it is believed that it dates back to the time when the Muslims invaded Spain, since in bars it was customary to call pure wine Turkish wine and who could be more lost than a drunk in the fog? this hilarious expression.
Don't look a gift horse in the teeth: it teaches us not to look for flaws in the gifts we receive, but on the contrary, to show ourselves grateful and flattered by the gesture. It arises from the age of the equine, since through its teeth the state of health and age of the animal can be identified.
Old horse does not learn new trot: it means that older people are difficult to change in the way of doing certain things, due to the habits already acquired.

Its importance in culture

The first thing is that they learn to identify with their roots and this favors the communicational and cultural connection between the speaker and the child. In addition, proverbs enrich speech, contribute to narrative compression and creation, and foster identity in a society that is kept alive in memory through its sayings. Through these they can summarize a situation, make warnings, give advice and are more closely linked to their feelings and thoughts, which helps the child's psychic development, so we recommend that they be taught from an early age.
