}Use this when someone asks for an Akan (Twi) proverb without naming a topic, or for a proverb of the day. The same date always gives the same proverb. Do not use it when a topic or a word is given (use proverbs.find), or as a horoscope or a prediction about the day.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| date | string | The day, as YYYY-MM-DD. Leave out for today. |
