延伸學習

俚語精解
If March comes in like a lion, it goes out like a lamb.
March是「三月」，come in 表「來到」，go out 表 「離開」。在這裡獅子和綿羊分別用來象徵嚴峻與mouseout="q69e23l87s41('out', 0, event, this);return true;" onmouseover="q69e23l87s41('over', 0, event, this);return true;" onclick="q69e23l87s41('click', 0, event, this);return true;">舒適的天氣，也就是說三月初的天氣若像獅子般寒冷嚴峻，那麼我們就可以預期，三月底的天氣會如羔羊般舒適溫馴。
例：My grandmother often says if March comes in like a lion, it will go out like a lamb.（我奶奶常說，若三月初的天氣像獅子般嚴峻，那麼月底的天氣就會像羔羊般溫順。）
