认为鹅是蠢笨傻得象征。
6.对鹅爱咬人的习惯不喜欢，鹅喜欢跟人，撵人，戳人的屁股和腿。
所以goose有刺激，戳，加油的意思give sth. the goose使某物加速英国人早期主要靠马来耕地，与马结下不解之缘英美人从古至今对狮子有特殊的感情。

特洛伊战争（Trojan War）是古希腊罗马神话传说的主线，特洛伊战争一打就是十年，其间涌现出许多赫赫有名的勇士和谋士，如阿喀琉斯（Achilles）、埃阿斯（Ajax）、赫克托（Hector）和俄底修斯（Odysseus）等等。
古希腊吟游盲诗人（Homer，9-8 B.C.）在史诗《伊利亚特》（Iliad）和古罗马诗人维吉尔（Virgil70-19BC）在《埃涅阿斯记》（Aeneid）中都把特洛伊人描述成意志坚强、勤劳勇敢的人。
在西方文化里，“特洛伊人”（Trojan）表示“勤勉的人、有毅力的人、英勇奋斗的人”。
Fit as a fiddle （非常健康）探究其起源，谨小慎微的词源学家只能告诉你来源不详，来源不确定或干脆打一个打问号。
一些大胆的语言专业学生提出了一些设想。
一种设想其起源和年迈的街头提琴手(fiddler)有关。
他们日复一日的在街头不停地拉动琴弦，非常消耗体力，为确保连续的演奏总是充满激情，他们必须具备充沛的精力和体力。
按照这种说法，fit as a fiddle 是不是该改成fit as a fiddler才合适呢？但是，我们目前从未发现fit as a fiddler 的用法，也没有任何fiddler 代替fiddle的说法。
有趣的是，我们却发现了fiddle 代替fiddler的用法，如He's second fiddle (他是二提琴手; 他是二把手)。
据我个人认为，假如你处于fit as a fiddle 的状态的话，那么in fine fettle （兴高采烈）肯定适合描述这种状态。
就音律而言，fiddle 和fettle 是非常接近的。
如果有人对fettle不太熟悉以至于把fettle 和fiddle 混淆起来，我看一点都不足为奇。
还有，fit as a fiddle也可以被说成fine as a fiddle ，有好多包含fettle和fiddle的短语，其中fiddle和fettle都是fine 的意思。
