What is a crowing dog thief?

This idiom refers to the skill or behavior of modesty, and also refers to the person who has this skill or behavior.

This idiom comes from Zuo Zhuan. Originally used to describe people who steal chickens and touch dogs, later used to describe those improper means and behaviors. This idiom literally means singing like a chicken and stealing like a dog.

In practical application, it is not only the specific behavior of stealing chickens and dogs, but also all improper means and behaviors. This kind of behavior is usually out of personal interests or the interests of small groups, regardless of the interests and morality of the whole society.

This idiom has a long history in Chinese. It originated from the ancient cultural tradition in China. In ancient China society, chickens and dogs were domestic animals, which were closely related to people's lives. However, chickens and dogs also have bad reputations, because they will do some improper behaviors. For example, chickens steal food and dogs often steal things. Therefore, this idiom is used to describe those improper behaviors.

This idiom is still widely used in modern Chinese. It can be used to describe people who steal chickens and dogs, and it can also be used to describe people or behaviors that obtain benefits by improper means. For example, in order to meet the market demand, some businesses deliberately manufacture and sell inferior goods, and some behaviors that are actually bent on making profits under the banner of charity can be described as chickens call dogs and thieves.

The meaning of this idiom has gone beyond its literal meaning and has become a profound cultural symbol. It warns people to stick to the correct handling methods and avoid seeking personal gain by despicable means.
