The Knowledge about Chinese Proverb
Chinese proverbs(中国谚语Zhōngguó yànyǔ) can be split into chengyu (accepted phrases), yanyu (familiar sayings), suyu (popular sayings), and xiehouyu (two-part allegorical sayings). Unique to the Chinese language, xiehouyu proverbs are vivid with images and dramatic results. Based on puns of homophonic words, the majority of xiehouyu(歇后语xiēhòuyǔ) is simply not translatable(capable of being put into another form or style or language). Therefore only a few such sayings will be included in this small sample of the unfathomable(if you describe something as unfathomable, you mean that it cannot be understood or explained, usually because it is very strange or complicated) reservoir of Chinese proverbs.
