打破蛋
肩担一旦糕，头顶一篮蛋，手拿一床背，走进一家旅店头歪一点打破蛋，弄脏了糕点背单和旅店。

大鱼小鱼，大渠养大鱼小渠杨小鱼，大渠大鱼吃小鱼，小渠，小鱼怕大鱼。
有一天下大雨，小渠流进大渠水，小渠里有大雨，大渠里没小雨。

气球换皮球，小齐吹气球，小鱼顽皮球，小齐要拿气球换小鱼的皮球，小鱼不拿皮球换小齐的气球?

小妞妞，放牛小妞妞去放牛大牛小牛共六头大牛鸡叫顶小牛鸡，叫顶坏小牛的头即坏了，放牛的小妞妞，小妞妞挥鞭抽大牛，不让大牛顶小牛，人人夸他是爱牛的小妞妞。

绕口令

绕口令1

A friend of mine, Sam, runs an amateur drama group. They put on three or four plays a year in a small local theatre. Sam directs all of them, sometimes takes a leading role and even writes some of the plays they perform as well. I don't do much acting myself, but I once played a servant in a comedy. Most of the time I help with costume and stage design, but sometimes I have a small role in one of the plays. We have a lot of fun.

Success lies on the other side of effort, which makes suffering part of the process.
Rather than avoid discomfort then, the ambitious must pursue it at all costs. Only by butting heads and pushing through such suffering will they ever attain the proverbial gold.

Lendas do Brasil - Boitatá 

眉- Méi

 "目" - mù - eye, the upper part of 眉- Méi could refer to "毛" - máo", meaning "hair" or "fur." 
The combination represents the hairs above the eyes, hence "eyebrows." 
This formation suggests the character's meaning directly and visually connects it to the facial feature it represents.

用法 (Usage)

 As a noun, "眉" directly refers to the eyebrows. 
 眉毛 - méi mao - eyebrows

例如 (For example): 
他的眉毛很浓。- Tā de méi mao hěn nóng  
(His eyebrows are very thick.)

However, it is often used metaphorically in Chinese to denote expressions or emotions conveyed by the movement of the eyebrows, such as surprise, concern, or anger.

For instance, 眉头- méi tóu - the inner brow, refers to the area where the eyebrows begin, typically located above the inner corners of the eyes.

For example, "皱眉头" - zhòu méi tóu, means "to furrow one's brow," indicating worry or deep thought..

Idiomatic Expressions: "眉- Méi" appears in various idioms that use eyebrows metaphorically to talk about emotions or aesthetic qualities.

例如 (For example): 
眉开眼笑 - méi kāi yǎn xiào - lit. "eyebrows rise and eyes smile," meaning to smile joyfully or beam with happiness

眉飞色舞 - méi fēi sè wǔ - lit. "eyebrows fly and colors dance," used to describe vivid, expressive facial gestures of excitement or happiness

Metaphorical Usage: In poetic or artistic contexts, "眉" can metaphorically relate to things that resemble the shape or curve of eyebrows.

例如：(For example): 
山的轮廓好像一道眉形。-Shān de lún kuò hǎo xiàng yí dào méi xíng 。
(The outline of the mountain resembles the shape of an eyebrow.)
