Idioms and four-character words

2 fables. (3) Myths or other legends.

4 classic literary works. Idioms are fixed phrases or sentences expressing general concepts, which are mostly composed of four words.

For example, "castles in the air", "famous", "according to you", "colorful" and "happy" are all four-character idioms. Idioms with less than four words, such as "knocking at the door", "unwarranted" and "taking for granted", and idioms with more than four words, such as "peaches and plums are all over the world", "real gold is not afraid of fire", "a leopard cannot change his spots" and "only state officials are allowed to set fires, but people are not allowed to light them", account for an absolute minority.

Idioms are similar to proper nouns, scientific terms, proverbs, two-part allegorical sayings, quotations and common phrases composed of four words in some respects. For example, proper nouns and scientific terms are fixed phrases; Proverbs, two-part allegorical sayings and quotations are not only fixed phrases or sentences, but also have meanings similar to idioms. Ordinary phrases composed of four words are simple and have the same form as most idioms, such as "East, West, North and South" and "Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter", but these are not idioms.

A clear understanding of the differences between idioms and proper names and scientific terms will help us to determine what idioms are and what they are not. Now I will briefly explain this aspect.

Idioms are different from proper names: proper names and idioms are fixed phrases composed of several words, but proper names express specific concepts. For example, "Lizhuang Primary School" is only the unique name of a school (of course, there may be duplicate names), and "Guang 'an People's Commune" is only the unique name of a commune. Idioms express general concepts. For example, the idiom "falling apart" can be used to describe a failed flower, a failed army or a scattered crowd.

Another example is the idiom "with relish", which can be used to describe anyone who is particularly interested in something. Idioms are different from scientific terms: scientific terms represent scientific concepts, not general concepts.

For example, scientific terms such as "subjective initiative", "revolutionary optimism", "infinite inflorescence" and "parallelogram" are all fixed phrases composed of several words, but they are not idioms. Idioms are different from proverbs: proverbs are mostly sentences rather than phrases.

Proverbs are often used in people's spoken language, but seldom used in articles. Proverbs often have a strong colloquial color, unlike idioms with a classical Chinese color.

Proverbs are not as neat as idioms. For example, the proverb "Sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight" and "All crows are black" is not so neat.

Of course, if these proverbs must be called idioms, they can be forced. Idioms are different from two-part allegorical sayings: two-part allegorical sayings are a fixed sentence, which must be composed of two parts: the first part is a metaphor for things, and the second part is a positive explanation.

In order to get vivid, vivid and concrete expression effect, we can also quote two-part allegorical sayings like idioms. For example, "a clay idol crossing the river is hard to protect itself."

"Dogs love to annoy mice." "The clay idol's face is getting ugly.

""Candied coptis is sweet first, then bitter. " These words are "two-part allegorical saying" rather than "idioms".

Idioms are different from quotations: there are individual sentences in ancient works, such as "intrigue" (see Du Mu's Epanggong Fu) and "get to the bottom of it" (see Su Shi's Red Wall Fu). Because it was often used by people, it later became an idiom. But, for example, "Qian Fan is beside the sunken ship, and Wan Muchun is in front of the sick tree.

"These are two poems by Liu Yuxi, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. These two poems are not often used, but they are occasionally quoted in articles.

Therefore, such sentences should be called "quotations", not as idioms. Idioms are different from ordinary four-word phrases, because most of them are composed of four words, so some people often regard ordinary four-word phrases, especially those with strong classical Chinese colors, as idioms.

It should be pointed out that whenever the words in a phrase are interchangeable, they should be regarded as an ordinary phrase. For example, the phrase "radical change" can also be changed to "radical change", "radical change" or "great change" on some occasions.

Another example is the phrase "close cooperation", which can be changed into "close cooperation" and "profligacy" and "profligacy" or "profligacy". After these phrases are changed, they do not affect the content and make people feel very appropriate.

Phrases that can change freely like this are all ordinary phrases. As for idioms, they are an organic whole, and the words that make up idioms cannot be replaced by other words with the same or similar meanings.

For example, the idiom "the rest of my life in the jaws of death" cannot be changed to "the rest of my life in the jaws of a wolf" or "the rest of my life in the jaws of death". Another example is: "No matter how rhetoric a colonialist talks about peace, it can't hide their aggressive nature.

"In this sentence, not only can we not change" rhetoric about peace "into" rhetoric about peace "or" rhetoric about peace ",but we are also reluctant to change it into" rhetoric about peace ". The difference between idioms and proper names, scientific terms and allegorical sayings seems quite obvious.

Generally speaking, the differences between idioms and quotations, common phrases and proverbs are clear, but some are not easy to distinguish. We should admit that some fixed phrases or fairly fixed phrases are between idioms and proverbs, quotations or ordinary phrases, and there is no need to divide them.

For example, "worthless" can be considered as a common phrase, because it is not forced to call it worthless, worthless or worthless. However, after all, this phrase is relatively fixed, much like an idiom, and it is no problem to regard it as an idiom.

Another example is "horse knows horsepower, and people will see it over time", and it is nothing to regard it as an idiom or proverb.

3. What's the difference between' four-character idioms' and' four-character words'? Idioms are Byaku Shiki phrases or short sentences in Chinese vocabulary. Idioms have fixed structural forms and fixed sentences, which express certain meanings and are used as a whole in sentences. A large part of idioms are handed down from ancient times. In terms of words, it is often different from modern Chinese and represents a story or allusion. Idioms are ready-made words, similar to idioms and proverbs, but slightly different. Most of them are written and belong to the literary nature. Secondly, in the form of language, idioms are established four-character structures, and literal words cannot be changed at will. Idioms play a vivid, concise and vivid role in language expression. In terms of specific capacity, four-character characters are more common. All words with a certain meaning are called four-character words.

4. The difference between "idioms" and "four-character words" is that idioms are all words, but words are not necessarily idioms.

Idiom is a part of stereotyped phrases or short sentences in China's Chinese vocabulary. Idiom is a major feature of China culture. It has a fixed structure and a fixed sentence, which expresses a certain meaning and is used as a whole in the sentence.

A large part of idioms are passed down from ancient times, and the words used are often different from those used in modern Chinese. They represent a story or an allusion. Idiom is a ready-made word, similar to idioms and proverbs, but slightly different.

Words are the combined names of words and languages, including words, phrases and the whole vocabulary. The minimum word structure of a sentence article is composed of words.

This new dictionary is rich in vocabulary and information. A word is the smallest sentence-making unit composed of morphemes.

Words can be divided into 2 words, 3 words and 4 words, but please note that words are not idioms. The word "colorful" is just a general adjective.

5. Discuss how to distinguish "Yong Wei Ying" from four-character words and idioms. Idioms are established. You can't add or subtract words casually, and you can't change words or word order casually. For example, "dead wood and rotten plants" can't be said to be "dead wood and rotten plants" or "groups of three or five" or "groups of three or five". Wang Sumin: Idioms are mostly four-character structures, including some three-character and multi-character. Words include idioms. For example, Happy Language and English Classroom. Yong: I think fixed words and four-character words are generally detachable. This concept is difficult to understand, and sometimes it is difficult for us to distinguish it ourselves. Wang Sumin: I think we should try not to strictly "pick" the concept-whether it is an idiom or not, in this case, it will aggravate the child's mood. Of course, this is not "making a fuss about concepts", but it will involve exams. I think primary schools should be "tolerant". This is my personal opinion. Yong Weiying: I quite agree with what you said, "Try not to dig up concepts strictly". There is no need to divide it so clearly. Because language is vague, it is an active learning method as long as it does not affect accurate expression. Besides, it's really bad. In teaching, when we come across a confusing four-character case, we can simply tell students that it is not an idiom and there is no need to classify and generalize it. Wang Sumin: And with the increase of students' reading, students can experience the flexible combination of ordinary four-character words and the relatively stable formal characteristics of idioms, so students can gradually distinguish them better.
