In my impression, there are two things whose names give people a very different impression from the actual objects. The same thing is something you can eat: wife cake, and the same thing is something you can look at: ivy.
I don’t know the origin of the name “Wife Cake”. Where does Wife Cake belong to as a snack? When I was very young, wife cakes were sold in the market. When I was a child, I thought that wife cakes were a specialty of the Chaoshan area. When I grew up, I found that the name wife cakes were found all over the country. I thought wife cakes were also sold in the market. It is not a specialty of Chaoshan. Facts have proved that wife cake is a Chaozhou snack and pastry, and it is a specialty of Chaozhou. Just because of the rapid economic development now, specialties from every place are likely to be sold across the country and become popular. Chaoshan people are very reserved, especially men. With a name as sweet as "wife cake", I never thought it had anything to do with Chaoshan people.
The name "Wife Cake" sounds very homely. In my opinion, homely food is delicious, but it does not pay attention to how beautiful it is. However, wife cake is not only delicious and very in line with Chinese tastes, it also looks good. It has a golden appearance, a uniform and bright color, and is layered layer by layer with clear layers, complete in color, flavor and flavor.
The name "creeper" sounds very fierce, and every word conveys the feeling of being ferocious, inviolable, and the overlord of the mountain. In fact, the name is very different from the real thing. The ivy is green and tender, bringing color and vitality to the boring wall, and bringing people the enjoyment of beauty. I once read a text written by Mr. Ye Shengtao, even though it was about ivy. Now I recall that the ivy in it gives people a kind and warm feeling.
To sum up, the difference between the names of these two things and the actual objects left a deep impression on me.
