too much water drowned the miller…出处?物极必反的翻译
Origins Of The Phrase Drown The Miller
The origin of the words comes from olden days when the Miller of a village was an important person and his flour
seen as a valuable commodity.Therefore he was looked after and his death or ill health would mean the village may
be without bread.
The phrase can also be used to a situation where you have not looked after an item or have done something which
has resulted in a bad situation.
“物极必反(太多水淹死守磨人)”的出处
在古代看守磨坊(古代一般风力或者水力)的人对于一个村子来说很重要.所以人们会特别关照守磨人,以免他出事导致村庄的人们没有面包吃了.于是人们会特别关注他,为他提供便利,比如帮他定期挖深水渠以保证磨坊有充足的水力来磨面粉,结果因为水太多,把看磨人淹死了.类似我们的民间故事或者成语故事,比喻为了达成特定目的做出的努力反而导致了目的无法达到
