| Synopsis: |
Proverbs are an important and characteristic feature of Chinese culture. There is a Chinese proverb for almost any situation, and judicious use of proverbs in Chinese writing is regarded as a sign of good education. Proverbs are often derived from stories or historical events, and offer a multi-dimensional resource for teaching Chinese. This guide, Chinese Proverbs for Mandarin Chinese Classes, offers a collection of proverbs of different types: chengy? ?? (accepted phrases), yany? ?? (familiar sayings), suy? ?? (popular sayings), and xi?houy? ??? (two-part allegorical sayings). Each proverb is set out with all the materials needed for classroom teaching: a literal translation, the figurative meaning, the story behind the proverb or its source, a vocabulary list, and examples of how the proverb is used in modern Chinese. Illustrations and vocabulary lists are also available online for use in classroom presentations. |
