字词 | 噬脐莫及 |
释义 | ‘若不早图,后君噬齐(齐: 同‘脐’),其及图之乎?’杜预注: ‘若啮腹齐,喻不可及’。意思是咬自己的肚脐是够不着的,后来用‘噬脐莫及’比喻后悔莫及。{The Zuo Commentary·Duke Zhuang 6th Year: ‘If you fail to act before it's too late, you'll end up biting into your belly button. Isn't it too late by that time?’ Du Yu's annotation of this line: ‘To bite one's belly button is a figurative way to say it is too late to repent.’ The expression means one cannot bite one's own navel. (fig.) It is too late to save a hopeless situation. or Repentance is too late.} |
