Some things usually have different meanings in different cultures. Here are some words about animals that are used differently in western cultures and Chinese culture.
譯文:有些東西在不同文化中有不同的含義。這里有一些關(guān)于動物的詞語,在中國文化和西方文化中用法不同。
Most phrases in Chinese about the dog, such as "a homeless dog", "a mad dog", "a running dog" and "a dog catching a mouse", have negative meanings. But in western countries, dogs are considered honest and good friends of humans. The word, "dog", has positive meanings. For example, "you are a lucky dog" means you are a lucky person. And "every dog has its day" means each person has good luck at times.
