Etymology
editFrom the Book of Rites, Book 18 (《禮記·學記》):
- 故學然後知不足,教然後知困。知不足,然後能自反也;知困,然後能自強也,故曰:教學相長也。 [Classical Chinese, trad.]
- From: The Book of Rites, c. 4th – 2nd century BCE, translated based on James Legge's version
- Gù xué ránhòu zhī bùzú, jiào ránhòu zhī kùn. Zhī bùzú, ránhòu néng zìfǎn yě; zhī kùn, ránhòu néng zìqiáng yě, gù yuē: jiào xué xiàng cháng yě. [Pinyin]
- Therefore when he learns, one knows his own deficiencies; when he teaches, he knows the difficulties of learning. After he knows his deficiencies, one is able to turn round and examine himself; after he knows the difficulties, he is able to stimulate himself to effort. Hence it is said, "Teaching and learning help each other."
故学然后知不足,教然后知困。知不足,然后能自反也;知困,然后能自强也,故曰:教学相长也。 [Classical Chinese, simp.]
