Pedroski Posted January 2, 2015 at 11:39 PM Report Posted January 2, 2015 at 11:39 PM Anyone familiar with this expression? '你耳朵生翅膀了' 我的手移到筷子中部。“不行，这样也不对，你耳朵生翅膀了，总听不见我的话？不能叉开筷子，叉开了，你守不住钱，会一辈子穷。象这样，拿稳，大拇指和二指压在一块。看你。教都教不转，得了，你今天先吃饭，明天给妈改过来。” Quote
陳德聰 Posted January 3, 2015 at 06:35 AM Report Posted January 3, 2015 at 06:35 AM Haha it's pretty much exactly what it looks like, I don't think it's a set expression or idiom but I may be wrong. It is certainly comical to me though. I would not have understood without the following part. Quote
Altair Posted January 3, 2015 at 01:05 PM Report Posted January 3, 2015 at 01:05 PM What does 教都教不转 mean? "You just can't be taught?" Quote
歐博思 Posted January 4, 2015 at 10:09 AM Report Posted January 4, 2015 at 10:09 AM Because 转 can mean 'change directions' I'm reading 教都教不转 as something like "can't teach an old dog new tricks" （teach not change [your] direction) But then I've suddenly remembered: 狗改不了。。。。。 。。。它用筷子吃不好shi（事） Quote
