Here are some example sentences with English idioms and their Chinese translations:
Example 1:
He always has a chip on his shoulder about being passed over for the promotion. (他总是因为没有得到提升而生气)
Example 2:
Don't pull my leg, I know you're just joking. (别和我开玩笑,我知道你在开玩笑)
The origin of idioms can come from various sources, such as literature, history, or everyday life. Some idioms have been in use for centuries, while others are more recent additions to the language.
