<< review queue entry 86547 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> Chinese dragons have four legs and no wings, whereas wyverns have two legs and a pair of wings. (The Chinese Wikipedia article on wyverns calls them 双足龙.) 飛龍 has a long, serpentine (snake-like) body, whereas a wyvern has a compact, lizard-like body. 飛龍 belongs to Chinese mythology and symbolism, whereas the wyvern comes from European tradition. Ex. 「龍要野一點，」鄭善禧邊畫邊談，看似不經意地以天青點染陶胚圓盤，一條騰雲駕霧的飛龍漸次成型，等著畫家點睛。 高速公路的另一端，車子經過中國最繁忙的關口──羅湖關──來到香港，駕駛座換了一邊，城市圖騰也由大鵬鳥變成了飛龍。 從龍困淺灘到飛龍在天，李安的戲劇性轉折人生，堪稱最佳的勵志故事。 |
