字词 | 瓜田李下 |
释义 | ‘瓜田不纳履,李下不正冠。’经过瓜田,不弯下身来提鞋,免得人家怀疑摘瓜;走过李树下面,不举起手来整理帽子,免得人家怀疑摘李子。后用‘瓜田李下’比喻容易引起嫌疑的地方。{From the ancient poem Gentleman's Etiquette: ‘Don't pull on your shoes in a melon patch; / Don't adjust your hat under a plum tree.’ In other words, when you walk past a melon patch, you should not bend your body to pull on your shoes so that you will not be suspected of picking a melon; when you walk under a plum tree, you should not raise your hands to adjust your hat so that you will not be suspected of picking plums. The four-character expression has been used to liken sth. that might arouse suspicion.} |
