3. xiehou yu
　　　Xiehou Yu is a special form of language which is widely circulated among the masses, and the language feature is vivid and witty humor. It generally has two components, the former is vivid metaphor, and the after is the explanations of the former. In Chinese, we often have to deal with Xiehou Yu whatever literary or oral languages. And in idioms translation, Xiehou Yu is also a very important part. 
　　For example:
　　白骨精骗唐僧——一计不成又生一计 the White Bone Demon deceiving Monk Tang——when one scheme failed, she turned to another (程永生，2005，29)
　　　On his way to the west to obtain Buddhist scriptures, Xuanzhuang, a famous monk of Tang Dynasty, met the White Bone Demon, who thought out one scheme after another to deceiving the monk so that she could eat the monk and then would prolong her life forever. However, this is the story contained in the fiction entitled Journey to the West。If the reader doesn’t know the story, he will not understand the meaning, so literal translation is used here to gain more information about the text. Here is another example: 像热锅上的蚂蚁——走投无路 like ants in a hot pot, they find nowhere to escape. Here literal translation is used to describe the plight of ants.

It also appears in other places such as prose and the discussion in the text. Thus, both the interpreters and written translations will encounter phrase translation.
For example:
九牛二虎之力
the strength of nine bulls and two tigers
     The literal translation show the real lives of the masses. If translate the above 九牛二虎之力 into tremendous effort, the meaning is not wrong, but it is not give a intuitionist impression to readers. On the contrary, look at the free translation:
咬耳朵
whisper in one’s ear
     if translate 咬耳朵 into bite ears, reader may think that some one bite another one’s ears, it is an action, however, the original meaning is to show some said to another in a low voice, it is completely another meaning between literal translation and free translation. Here are some more example about this: 
门外汉
the uninitiated or a layman (a man outside the gate)
 小广播
spreading of hearsay information or bush telegraph (a small broadcast station)
　　　All the examples above are used free translation to express the real meaning of the text, the brackets are translated literally, they are wrong meaning of the sentence.

V how can people use literal translation and free translation in modern Chinese idioms  近代中国俗语中人们怎么使用直译和意译

　　　The issue of whether to translate literally or freely has existed at the very beginning of translation but they are still controversial today. Usually, literal translation and free translation take word-keeping and motion-expressing as their priorities respectively. And, either of them has defects.
