I agree that we are not tyros in government, but very old hands in the art not only of governing ourselves but of governing other countries.
You are going to put a lot of tyros on the land who do not know anything about farming.

A tyro in these matters knows that the causes are mainly international.
I venture to think that only the most honourable tyro in these matters would have evolved this piece of drafting.
He has described himself as a tyro in finance.
