汉语中的“各人自扫门前雪,休管他人瓦上霜”这一典故源自人们的生活习惯,在冬天下雪的时候,各家各户为了行走方便,各自清扫自己庭院中或门前的积雪,该典故现在常用来指各自为政,只考虑自己的利益而不顾他人或集体利益的行为.另外汉语中的“半斤八两”源自中国习惯于使用的“斤”这一计算单位,整个成语表示一半对一半,在英国文化中,人们喜欢用“打”来做计算单位,这样便有了six of one and half a dozen of the other.其意义同汉语中的半斤八两一致.
情人眼里出西施 中的西施是美女的代表,具有鲜明的汉民族文化色彩,与其相对应的英语是出自莎士比亚的《威尼斯商人》里的love is blind 二是出自lew Wallace 的 the prince of India 里的beauty is in the eye o fthe beholder 在这两个英语成语中,前者体现了情人的意思,却未能传达出出西施的意思,后者却刚好相反,出西施的意思倒十分清楚,但情人的意思却未能传达出来,其表达的主要含义是:美是因人而异,强调主观性,所以这两个成语并不十分对应,love is blind的民族色彩比beauty is in the eye of the beholder要显著,它含有爱神丘比特cupid 是瞎眼的,他射出的爱之箭是盲目的.恋爱者因而也是盲目的.这就是西方的民族文化色彩 .
削足适履出自《淮南子.说林训》:骨肉相爱,谗贼间之,而父子相危.夫所以养而害其所养,譬犹削足适履,杀头而便冠.它的意思是脚大鞋小,把脚犹削去一部分以适合鞋的大小.比喻勉强求合或不合理就现成的条件,与其对应的英语是stretch on the procrustean bed,出自希腊神话,相传普罗克鲁斯procrustes 是雅典一大盗 ,经常把俘虏绑到一张铁床上,如果身比床长,便斩其脚,如果没有床长,便硬将其身子拉长.这个成语的寓意和汉语削足适履一样是强求一致/ 不合理的要求按照同一标准办事.不合理的迁就现成条件.
