Chengyu are Chinese idioms that consist of four characters. Although they originate from classical Chinese, Chengyu remain as an important aspect in both spoken and written language. They may seem erratic and confusing to you at first since they don’t follow the usual sentence order and their meanings depend heavily on context. But don’t worry, in this Chengyu series, we will introduce simple Chengyu made up with all the characters that you already knew, and you can infer the actual meaning by looking at the separate characters!
In this lesson, let’s take a look at the Chengyu with Water in them!
Key Vocabulary:
如鱼得水 - rúyúdéshuǐ - like a fish back in water (idiom)
车水马龙 - chēshuǐmǎlóng - endless stream of horse and carriages (idiom), hustle and bustle
幸运 - xìngyùn - fortunate; lucky; fortune
遇到 - yùdào - to meet; to run into; to come across
门口 - ménkǒu - doorway; gate
热闹 - rènao - bustling with noise and excitement
到处 - dàochù - everywhere
拖泥带水 - tuōnídàishuǐ - lit. wading in mud and water; a sloppy job; sloppy
从不 - cóngbù - never
