俗語(yǔ)有哪些？
NO.1嫁雞隨雞，嫁狗隨狗“ 嫁雞隨雞，嫁狗隨狗”，原為“嫁乞隨乞，嫁叟隨叟”，出處是《賣油郎獨(dú)占花魁》，意思是一個(gè)女人即使嫁給乞丐或者是年齡大的人也要隨其生活一輩子。但隨著時(shí)代的變遷，這一俗語(yǔ)轉(zhuǎn)音成“ 嫁雞隨雞，嫁狗隨狗”了。NO.2三個(gè)臭皮匠，頂個(gè)諸葛亮“皮匠”實(shí)際上是“裨將”的諧音，裨將在古代是指副將。這句俗語(yǔ)的原意是指3個(gè)副將的智慧合起來(lái)能頂一個(gè)諸葛亮。后來(lái)，人們把“裨將”說(shuō)成了“皮匠”。3個(gè)下層的、在第一線上行軍打仗的裨將，有時(shí)他們的經(jīng)驗(yàn)和智慧集中起來(lái)，就比遠(yuǎn)在大寨里指揮、足智多謀的諸葛亮來(lái)得有效。因此，“3個(gè)臭裨將，賽過(guò)諸葛亮”才是這句諺語(yǔ)的原意和原字。NO.3不見(jiàn)棺材不落淚“ 不見(jiàn)棺材不落淚”，本應(yīng)是“不見(jiàn)親棺不落淚”，意思是見(jiàn)了親人的棺材才落淚，而不是見(jiàn)了任何棺材都落淚。NO.4跳到黃河也洗不清這本是一句歇后語(yǔ)，“跳到黃河——洗不清”。因?yàn)辄S河水中含大量泥沙，十分渾濁，跳進(jìn)黃河中，要洗凈身上的污穢是不可能的，比喻一個(gè)人難于洗刷自己身上的污點(diǎn)。后來(lái)變?yōu)椤?跳到黃河也洗不清”，比較費(fèi)解。NO.5有眼不識(shí)金鑲玉現(xiàn)在人們說(shuō)的“ 有眼不識(shí)金鑲玉”其實(shí)是“有眼不識(shí)荊山玉”，這句俗語(yǔ)典出《韓非子·和氏》。里面所說(shuō)的“荊山玉”就是出自荊山的和氏璧。NO.6不到黃河心不死明·凌蒙初《初刻拍案驚奇》卷十五里寫到：“我道：‘你不到烏江心不死，今已到了烏江，這心原也該死了?！?。因此，“ 不到黃河心不死”應(yīng)為“不到烏江不盡頭”。NO.7王八蛋這是一句民間罵人的話，實(shí)際上，這句話的原來(lái)面目是“忘八端”。古代“八端”是指“孝，悌，忠，信，禮，義，廉，恥”，指的是做人之根本，忘記了“八端”也就是忘了做人根本，可是后來(lái)卻被變成“ 王八蛋”。NO.8舍不得孩子套不著狼應(yīng)該為“舍不得鞋子套不著狼”，這句俗語(yǔ)意思是要想打到狼，就要不怕走路、不怕費(fèi)鞋。因?yàn)楂C人想捕狼，往往要翻山越嶺、跑許多山路，所以非常費(fèi)鞋，如果舍不得費(fèi)這一兩雙鞋子就很難捕到狼。就這樣，“舍不得鞋子套不著狼”這句俗語(yǔ)就誕生并廣泛流傳開(kāi)來(lái)了。這句俗語(yǔ)中的“鞋子”一詞后來(lái)又怎么會(huì)訛變?yōu)椤昂⒆印蹦?？原?lái)，在古漢語(yǔ)中是沒(méi)有j、q、x這3個(gè)音的，所以，在古漢語(yǔ)中“鞋”是讀做“hai”。后來(lái)，“hai”音分化，一部分仍讀做“hai”，另一部分則讀做了“xie”。但在我國(guó)四川、湖北、湖南、上海、廣東等地的方言中，“鞋子”卻一直被讀成“hai zi”。時(shí)間一長(zhǎng)，“舍不得鞋子套不著狼”也就被訛傳誤記為“ 舍不得孩子套不著狼”了。NO.9狗屁不通這個(gè)成語(yǔ)最初是“狗皮不通”，狗皮沒(méi)有汗腺，酷夏，狗借助舌頭來(lái)散熱，這個(gè)成語(yǔ)就是以狗的這一身體特點(diǎn)而言。由于“皮”與“屁”諧音，對(duì)于文理不通的詩(shī)文或不明事理的人，以屁貶之，意思更為鮮明。后來(lái)人們將錯(cuò)就錯(cuò)，約定俗成地將 “狗皮不通”變成了“ 狗屁不通”。NO.10無(wú)奸不成商“無(wú)尖不成商”被誤解為“ 無(wú)奸不成商”?！凹狻眮?lái)源于古代用來(lái)度量的斗。古代米商做生意時(shí)，除了要將斗裝滿外，還要再多舀上一些，讓斗里的米冒著尖兒。在那個(gè)時(shí)代，不能敦厚到這種程度的，就被公認(rèn)為不夠資格當(dāng)商人。后來(lái)由于人們道德素質(zhì)的下降，“無(wú)尖不成商”慢慢就變成了“ 無(wú)奸不成商”。
