In one hand we have proverbs, saying inspired or told by wise or old people in the past, in the other hand we have idioms Intended to a specific significance. So what is the difference between saying and idiom, if I may add slangs to my question, what would be your answer ... ???

A proverb is a short sentence based on long experience.
Nice discussion asma.
A line for u,
A rose is a rose is a rose.
(Is it idiom or proverb ?? ).
Hello Asif,
thanks for your reply :)
A rose is a rose is a rose hmmm .... I think it's a proverb, because you are just giving a definition of a rose by a rose, there isn't something different in meaning from that sentence.
