意味
Rumors usually have some truth.
文化的背景
In Russian culture, proverbs are used very frequently even in modern, urban settings. Using a proverb like this makes you sound wise and grounded in 'folk' truth. During the Soviet period, this phrase was sometimes used cynically to suggest that if the government accused someone, they must be guilty of something. On Russian social media (VK, Telegram), this phrase is often used in comments sections to discuss 'leaks' from tech companies or video game developers. The proverb reflects the reality of old Russian wooden villages where smoke was the first sign of a life-threatening fire.
