In these idioms and idioms, some of the animal name nouns completely lose their original noun meanings, and many of them can be translated into the corresponding Chinese slang. Examples are as follows. 1. All asses wag their ears. (As another meaning is a stupid foolish person) 2. He is full of bull. He does not have a true word.
