A1 Proverb 中性

chi va piano va sano

Slow and steady wins the race

意思

Patience leads to success.

🌍

文化背景

This proverb is the unofficial motto of the 'Slow Food' movement, which started in Italy to preserve traditional cuisine and local ingredients against the spread of fast food. In the South, this proverb often reflects a lifestyle where the heat of the day necessitates a slower pace (the controra), emphasizing that rushing is not only foolish but unhealthy. Teachers often use this to discourage 'cramming' before exams, promoting a 'poco a poco' (little by little) approach to learning. In workshops (botteghe) for leather or ceramics, this phrase justifies the high price and long wait times for handmade goods.
