Collection of idioms and culture about pigs
Among the Chinese zodiac signs , Chinese idioms about pigs are the least. "Going with the dog" and "Dog" are idioms that appear together with a dog, and they belong to a silly language.
In the idiom about pigs, the word "pig" does not appear, but is replaced by "彘" or "豕".
▲Lu Yuhaiwan
Refers to text errors in the writing and printing of books. "Lu" and "fish", and "hai" and "hog" are similar in appearance in seal script, which is easy to miswrite or misread. "Lv Family Spring and Autumn? Cha Biography", "A reporter who read the history said:'The three pigs of the Jin teacher cross the river.' Zi Xia said:'No, it is Jihai. The husband and the three are similar, and the pig is similar to the Hai.' "Jin Gehong's "Baopuzi? Xianlan": "The proverb says:'The book is written three times, the fish becomes Lu, and the empty becomes a tiger.'" Volume 4 of "Yi Lin" quoted this proverb as "Book three writes, fish Cheng Lu, the emperor becomes a tiger", so "Lu Yuhai hog" can also be used as "Lu Yu emperor tiger", with the same meaning.
