惩羹吹脍 | chéng gēng chuī kuài | Scalded by (hot) broth one blows on (cold) vegetable. (literal) • Blow first and sip afterwards. • A burnt child dreads the fire. [同义] 吴牛喘月 The scalded dog fears cold water. [反义] 玩火自焚 Play with fire. [源] 楚辞·九章·惜诵：“惩于羹而吹齑兮。”
“脍”为“鱼或肉”，非蔬菜。由译文“vegetable”可知词头“惩羹吹脍”为“惩羹吹齑”之误。 |
