, to,
not a couplet
-------------------------------------------
Editor: "green is born of blue, but beats blue" is nonsensical.
The full version of the saying was rewritten (made comprehensible), but not this entry.
If you search CEdict for 青出於藍, you'll find the full version of the saying.
So it's not necessary to have the first half of it.
Diff:
- 青出於藍 青出于蓝 [qing1 chu1 yu2 lan2] /lit. green is born of blue, but beats blue (idiom); fig. the student becomes superior to the master/same as couplet 青出於藍,而勝於藍|青出于蓝,而胜于蓝/
# + 青出於藍 青出于蓝 [qing1 chu1 yu2 lan2] /lit. green is born of blue, but beats blue (idiom); fig. the student becomes superior to the master/same as 青出於藍,而勝於藍|青出于蓝,而胜于蓝/
