This proverb basically is telling you that the way you dress will tell people things about you and in turn will form their opinions about you. Thus if you dress up in more formal or stylish clothes people will often have a higher opinion of you. All right. Let's continue. They say this idea may have originally come from a Greek expression that translated as the garment makes the man. All right. That makes sense . That's pretty close. Garment is already just letting you know on the type of material. There is also a quote by Shakespeare. So Shakespeare is on record also using the same quote in Hamlet. Hamlet you know one of my favorite Shakespeare plays ,That, that reads this way. You know c'lothes maketh the man..' Remember that's Old English. maketh also means makes. So that's that's a literal translation as well. Let's, let's continue here. A Catholic priest named Aramis published a book of old Greek and Roman proverbs in 1500. So this is the one that probably everybody copied from that a later came to what we get today the recorded quote by Aramis was in Latin and in Latin it read this way, vestis virum facit. basically or facit, which also means the clothes make the man. So it comes directly from that. and you know Mark Twain's even in here. Mark Twain later, later added this quote. "Clothes make the man make , naked people have little or no influence on society" So he's just adding a little joke or a little humor to the idea. So obviously he didn't create it. and you know the ones before didn't created it . We don't really know a hundred percent who was the first one to say this week probably was just an old Greek proverb that was passed down. And everybody else here probably kind of copied it and went along with it. All right . Let's continue. The proverb still seems to be true today as we see businessmen and politicians will all will always you know dress up in their best formal clothes , and even actors display this at Academy Awards. And of course you know you might want to look good on dates as well. So know let me know what you think. You put in the comments. Is this still true today ? Do close still make the mad or maybe it doesn't matter anymore. Anyway. I hope you got it . I hoe i it was clear . Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
