Historical and Cultural Differences between China and the West and Idiom Translation
Study the differences between Chinese and western dog cultures.

In order to enrich students' study life and stimulate their love for learning, this semester, the school has carried out a variety of research-based learning.

Activities. The students are all in high spirits and enthusiasm. The geography group went to Quanzhou Museum, and the Chinese group rode to the scenic spots and politics in southern Fujian.

Various research methods emerge one after another, and our group studies the differences between Chinese and western dog cultures.

There are obvious cultural differences between China and the West, including color differences and etiquette differences.

On the cultural differences between China and the West from the perspective of "dog": the meaning of "dog" is quite different in Chinese and English. In the west, dogs are loyal companion animals.

But in our country, people usually have an aversion to dogs. The different attitudes of Chinese and western people towards dogs are naturally in their own languages.

Reflection. Today, foreigners can be seen everywhere in China, and western products, western ideas and western culture can be seen everywhere.

It has been gradually introduced into China, so it is necessary for us to further understand the differences of western dog culture.

In Chinese, people often use the word "dog" to insult people they hate or narrow-minded. But what westerners call "dogs"

However, it is very different from China in meaning. For example:

Love me, love my dog. . Top dog (the most important person),

Tired, living a dog's life (a life inferior to that of cattle and horses).

If you see a foreigner putting his hand on your shoulder in a friendly way and saying, "You are a lucky man", naturally, if you look at it from the perspective of China people.

We all think that foreigners are scolding us, but in the west, lucky means lucky. If you don't know these idioms and

Foreigners will certainly laugh generously when fighting!

Of course, dogs mentioned in the west are not all commendatory words. Although their meanings are different from those of China, some words sometimes contain derogatory meanings.

Such as "this/that dirty dog",

"They say English wants dogs" (people say English is terrible) but generally speaking, the word may include this.

Most of the various sayings of this word contain commendatory meanings. Or has a neutral meaning.

In today's economic globalization, we can't just learn Chinese and understand the culture of China, which can't adapt to the development of society and can't promote society.

With the progress and sustained economic growth, we should selectively learn western culture and absorb western knowledge on the basis of inheriting China's excellent tradition.

Make contributions to the prosperity of the motherland!
