Thank you very much. Thanks for doing it.
Almost 100%. It’s only that my hand slipped on the mouse while clicking “Summer” and it came down to “Spring”. As a content writer, I have to keep myself updated with all these things.
In my country and language we say One swallow doesn’t make a spring. It is popular phrase here but translation is with spring not summer like in English, so people from my country make a mistake when it is about this English proverb.
Swallows do arrive in these islands (Ireland and Britain) in the spring, so it would be more logical to have the proverb with spring. I don’t know why we do it ‘wrong’ in English!
