Abstract:
Phytonymic phrases—expressions that use plant names—give us a glimpse into how different cultures view nature. These phrases use plants to represent ideas and values. For example, in English, saying someone is “turning over a new leaf” means they are starting fresh, while in Chinese, “growing like bamboo” reflects ideas of growth and strength. By looking at these phrases, we can better understand how various cultures connect with nature and use it in their language.
