Venir
*Tout vient à point à qui sait attendre = Everything comes to the man who waits.
[The older form of the proverb omitted à; for qui = si on.]
C’est un beau venir y voir = A pretty sight indeed!
Où voulez-vous en venir? = What are you driving at? What is your drift?
Il se vante d’en venir à bout = He says he is sure to succeed.
Vent
Il fait un vent à décorner (or, écorner) un bœuf = There is a wind enough to blow one’s head off.
Autant en emporte le vent = That is but so much breath spent in vain; It is not of the slightest consequence.
*Vent au visage rend un homme sage = Adversity makes a man wise, not rich.
