النطق: yā què wú shēng المعنى الحرفي: Crows and sparrows without sound

الأصل والاستخدام

This idiom describes a scene where even crows (鸦) and sparrows (雀) make no (无) sound (声). These common birds are normally noisy, so their silence indicates extreme quiet. The phrase appeared in texts describing solemn occasions, tense moments, or places of deep concentration. It represents perfect silence where even ambient noise disappears. Modern usage describes complete silence in normally noisy settings, often indicating attention, tension, or solemnity.
