Cane scottato dall'acqua calda teme anche quella fredda

Bitten by a snake on one day, afraid of the rope by the well for ten years

a burnt child shuns the fire

A scalded cat fears cold water

a burnt child dreads the fire

Whoever gets burnt with porridge, even blows on yoghurt

The scalded is cautious of cold water

a child burnt shuns the fire

a burnt baby shuns the fire

‌Bitten by a snake is afraid of a striped rope.

A scalded cat is afraid of cold water

a scalded cat runs away from cold water

the one whose mouth has been burnt because of milk, eats yoghurt by blowing it
