SAYING OF THE WEEK: YOU CAN´T MAKE A SILK PURSE...



You can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear*

When someone tries to improve a person or an object that cannot be changed, this saying is often used. In Spanish there is a similar saying… Can you guess what saying it is?  Yes… Aunque la mona se vista de seda...
