Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Proverbs 161. The proverb today is "Practice
Makes Perfect. " Okay. Let's take a look at the note here.
If someone says practice makes perfect, he or she means that by practicing
something often or over and over again, your skill should get better and better.
Okay. Eventually one should become very skilled or proficient at a particular
thing. Okay. It mostly makes sense. Let's continue. This version of this phrase has
existed since the 1500s. It is believed to have derived from... derived from remember means
comes from an older proverb " Use Makes Mastery. " So you know, I guess the more you
use something, the more you become like a master. Remember a master is somebody who is
very skilled at something, And that phrase and use makes mastery derived
from a Latin phrase "Uses Promptus facit' or Facit.
Maybe, basically which is the Latin for use makes mastery. Okay. Good. And we have
two examples to cover this here. So example number one. If you want to
improve your writing skills , you must write more and more papers and learn
from your mistakes. If you keep it up. you will improve. Practice makes perfect.

want to improve your skills at this martial art , you must practice, practice,
practice. Remember practice makes perfect. Okay. Anyway, This is just the way we would
use it. I hope you got it. I hope it was informative. Thank you for your time. Bye-
bye.
