Mark Yong Posted August 10, 2013 at 10:44 AM Report Share Posted August 10, 2013 at 10:44 AM I am interested to know if the following idioms are unique to Cantonese, or are they generic Chinese idioms? 捩橫折曲 斷橛禾蟲 / 斷截禾蟲 同檯食飯，各自修行 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nasan Posted August 30, 2013 at 06:54 AM Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 at 06:54 AM I am a native Mandarin speaker. I have never heard of first two idioms before. For the third one, I have heard it before. But it seems that we never say "同檯食飯".I referred to 成語字典，but haven't found the idioms. They should be Cantonese idioms and even cannot be used in written Chinese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
