Sayings differs from the proverbial first of all, that the situation for their application much more.Take, for example, the well-known expression "mosquito nose will not undermine."Its value can range from "no one knows" to "all will be well."Proverbs is mandatory contain the conclusion, and proverbs can be used "by the way" and be multi-valued.So, in any cases, appropriate use of the expression "the less you know - sleep tight" and that it is understood?
What prevents sleep?
This expression completely in vain called a proverb, because no sane person would take direct action words "the less you know - sleep tight."Otherwise, he would have for healthy sleep discard any knowledge.But the multiplication table or the rules of the Russian language hardly anyone driven to insomnia.So then what about the knowledge that interfere with your night's rest, the saying goes?To do this, refer to the explanatory dictionaries and see the lexical meaning of the word "know."It all seems so basic that no one in the head does not come, that in connection with it may be some misunderstanding.And still.For example, in the dictionary of the XVIII century "know" had eight values, chief among which was the availability of information, news about anything.In the modern Russian language in the dictionary Ephraim, the verb "to know" five values, the first of which refers to the knowledge, and the second - the awareness, the third - the acquaintance with someone, the fourth - the experience, the fifth value (portable) used in the sense to guess.So now it is easy to conclude that the saying "the less you know - sleep tight" does not call to be ignoramuses, and not about scientific knowledge it says, although one of the options the use of this expression in the literal sense, but with a touch of irony still exists.This would be the case, when suddenly a lesson one of the students, which is also bad learns to fall asleep.It was in this situation in terms of "the less you know - sleep tight" the verb "to know" will be using in the sense of "to have certain knowledge and skills."
dream that was not a dream
it always a dream of a strong saying in this question?Dream of a man disturbed by high anxiety.And it leads all sorts of speculation, experience and information that raises suspicion and reflections, even to know someone and it is "dangerous" to sleep.But is this saying it is a dream in the literal sense?When a woman buys an expensive handbag, asked a friend about how to treat this waste of her husband, she replies: "Less know - sleep tight."This phrase lady immediately makes it clear that she did not tell her husband.In this case, the saying has a slightly different meaning: the desire to hide some information from a person in order that he should not ask too many questions, and there emerges a clear desire to make the decision itself, without consulting anyone.But when the salesman, changing the label on the packaging of the cheese shelf life, saying: "The less you know - sleep tight", he, at least, is a fraud, so that might happen if it does not matter, then big trouble.So it is quite possible to assume that someone with this saying is even a crime.
