A Chinese saying (谚语) says, "The weather in June is like a baby's face. " It means the weather always changes suddenly (突然地). In English, there is also a saying. March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb(羔羊)." What does it mean?
March is a month between winter and spring. It "comes in like a lion". Why? Because the month begins with winter weather like wind and cold days. At the end of March, spring is on the way. The weather gets warm.
If March begins with warm weather and clear days, people should be careful of bad weather at the end of the month.
Are the sayings interesting and useful? Can you give us more?
