Hi this is Tutor Nick P and  this is Proverbs 138. The  proverb today is forewarned

基礎被動語態

is forearmed.  Remember fore always means like before or

ahead of time. Warn,  so you're getting a warning ahead of time is forearmed. Your

armed,  you're prepared. You have like weapons against something. You're armed

against something bad or a danger that may come to you. So that's what we mean

by forewarned is forearmed. Okay. Let's take a look at the note here. The proverb

basically means having a warning in advance will provide one with an

advantage. If one is ignorant or unaware of a danger,  there is no way to prepare

for it. Being forewarned allows one to prepare or guard against a possible

danger. It is up to...  meaning you know it's up to that person to decide. Some people

sometimes they,  they ignore warnings.  Sometimes it is up to the individual to

take the steps to prepare or ignore it.  It is often given when trying to warn

someone or...  someone of something,  especially if you are unsure he or she

will follow it. That's when you're more likely going to use it. So let's give one

example of the way it might be used. Like someone may say you had better follow my

advice. You had  better listen to me. You better follow my advice. Remember being

forewarned is forearmed. So I'm letting you know ahead of time.  I'm giving you

that warning. You know,  be careful. You should follow it. You should heed my

advice. Okay. And. Let's continue here. The origin of this proverb is believed to

come from two Latin terms which are actually pretty similar. praemonitus or

praemunitus that are translated , they say kind of in in a loose way.Indirectly

to mean forewarned is forearmed. It really didn't start to be used a lot

until it started to be used more commonly

in the late 1500s.  That's when it started to become more common. Anyway I hope you

got it. I hope it was informative. Thank you for
