守株待兔
It seems that no one keep working on this project. I'll post another one.
守株待兔
守株是守在一棵樹的旁邊.待兔是等ㄧ個兔子來.
你看,這個農夫守在這棵大樹旁邊等著兔子來呢!
他為什麼不種田而在這兒等兔子呢? 兩千多年前的ㄧ天,
宋國的ㄧ個農夫正在田裡除草的時候,
忽然看見一隻兔子飛快地跑過來撞到一棵大樹上....

十四 一箭雙雕
十四 一箭雙雕
雕是一種大鳥. 這個成語的意思是說一個人很有本事,
用一隻箭同時可以射下來兩隻大鳥. 在中國南北朝的時候,
有一個人姓張*叫孫晟, 他雖然書讀得不多, 但是武藝高強, 尤其會射箭.
皇帝派他出使突厥國.突厥的國王攝圖知道長孫晟的本領很好, 非常賞識他,
常邀他ㄧ起去騎馬打獵. 有一天, 他們又率領大隊人馬去打獵.
他們到了森林以後, 沒看見有什麼野獸, 很失望. 正在這時候,...

两千多年前，杞国有一个人，膽子很小，什么都怕。
如果天掉下来了，我们躲到哪去呀？我们一定死定了。 Yes, you're correct.
This 杞人憂天 reminds me of another similar chenyu--吳牛喘月, which means to be frightened
or fear something too much.
Hope it...

Hehe! It beats me. I think the function of ㄋㄟ is like that of 喔, 啊, 咦, etc. It's the
