What do you mean by keeping a low profile and keeping a low profile?

keep a low profile, pronounced t ā o gu ā ng y m ? ng Hu, which means to hide one's talents and not expose them. Different from containing without revealing. It first appeared in the Preface to the Collection of Mr. Jingjie written by Xiao Tong, Prince of Liang State in the Southern Dynasties. In its preface, there is a saying, "Sages hide their light, while sages hide from the world". There is another saying in The Book of Jin, Biography of Huangfumi, that "hide one's light and drive away one's enemy's enemy's enemy's enemy's enemy's enemy's enemy's enemy".

thick accumulation and thin hair, pronounced hòu jī bó fā, describes that only when you are fully prepared can you do a good job. From Su Shi's famous saying about reading composition: "Learn from the book, take it from the book, accumulate it, and make it thin." According to the author's understanding, the term "about taking" here refers not only to taking less, but also to taking carefully and carefully, while taking the essence and discarding the dross.

Idioms are some stereotyped phrases or short sentences in the vocabulary of Chinese characters in China. Idiom is a major feature of Chinese culture, which has a fixed structure and a fixed statement, indicating a certain meaning, and is applied as a whole in sentences. A large part of idioms are inherited from ancient times, and they are often different from modern Chinese in terms of words. They represent a story or an allusion.

the difference between idioms and scientific terms: scientific terms represent scientific concepts, not general concepts. For example, scientific terms such as "subjective initiative" and "parallelogram" are not idioms, although they are all fixed phrases composed of several words.

the difference between idioms and proverbs: proverbs are often used in people's spoken language, but less in articles. Proverbs often have a strong oral color, unlike idioms, which have a classical Chinese color. The form of proverbs is not as neat as idioms. For example, proverbs like "All crows are black" are not so neat.
