Hey, the couplet on your door is really strange. The first half is all made of the character ''Chang," and the second half is, too. What's the big idea?
Ha ha, you're stumped, right? We sell bean sprouts. So the couplet should be read like this: ''chang zhang chang zhang chang chang zhang, zhang chang zhang chang zhang zhang chang.'' The point is that we hope the bean sprouts will grow long and thick, and there will be a lot. That's the only way we'll make more money.
Oh, right, how could I forget that the character ''chang" has multiple readings? It can be read as ''chang," like in the word for ''length," or as ''zhang" as in ''to grow up." Agh, I studied for nothing. Look, we can't study what we need to know.
Don't underestimate yourself. Actually, this is just a word game. A lot of Chinese people wouldn't be able to read it correctly.
