hmmm... (Minatsuki): 2006-07-13 09:36:02; What does the 'nine' stand for? I don't get the proverb.

By the way, the bees look so big. Actually I'm scared of bees, so I hope they won't come to the yard of my house.; 返信する

Hi ! (ya421): 2006-07-13 13:54:24; The meaning of this proverb is '時期を得た一針は九針省く'.

So 'nine' means 'nine stitches', I think.

I'm sure some kind of insects including bee will come someday, as you have a nice flower garden.

Don't be scared of bees, please !; 返信する
