Many-a Mickle Maks-a Muckle


'Many a mickle makes (or 'maks') a muckle' is a curious Scottish saying of antiquity,
although it is also common in the North of England
and not entirely unknown elsewhere.
It is derived from 'A wheen o' mickles mak's a muckle',
and means 'many of one thing make another, larger, thing'.
A simple lesson, but one which needs restating;
one must always look after the pennies.

What are 'mickles' and 'muckles'?
Webster 1913 states that each word is essentially a variant of the other,
both meaning 'amount'.
Arguments arge as to whether 'mickle' is in this case a corruption of 'pickle'
(a Scots word for 'little'), and as to whether 'mickle' was once inherently inferior
to 'muckle' or merely a variant.
Whatever the case, the proliferation of this proverb
has ensured that 'muckle' is now widely regarded
as being the superior of 'mickle', something which is likely to persist.
