We have those exact proverbs in my country too. My mom uses it a lot ^^.

“Dime con quien andas y te diré quien eres” ( Dimmi con chi vai e ti dirò chi sei )

“El que anda con cojo al año cojea” (Chi va con lo zoppo impara a zoppicare)

Spanish and italian are so similar .

I think this website is going to become a great resource. I have thoroughly enjoyed all the content and most recently gli sezione di proverbi e idiomi.

In my weekly Italian language discussion group we share one proverb or saying some general, some regional, but all fun and culturally enlightening. A good mind is a terrible thing to waste! I love learning everything I can about the language and the culture.

Thanks for sharing.
