Question

Choose the correct meaning of the given proverb:
Every dog has its day.

• A. Each dog is dedicated a day to celebrate itself every year.
• B. Every person has good luck at some point in his life.
• C. Every dog should have a day out.
• D. Dogs love their meals during the day.

Answer 1

The correct option is B Every person has good luck at some point in his life.

A proverb is a short saying that states a general truth or advice. They're popular as they are told and retold through generations, incorporated in books and stories that grandparents narrate to children. Proverbs have a deeper meaning than the one you perceive at first. The given proverb is a truth, "dog" represents man and "its day" represents good luck. Every man will get good luck or success at some point or the other in his life, hence option B gives the correct meaning of the proverb. Option A isn't true, options C and D are vague and don't explain the proverb, hence A, C and D are incorrect.
