Definition
明日黄花
Literally means:
tomorrow's chrysanthemum
Actually means:
outdated things; things no longer in fashion
It has its origin in a famous verse line in ancient times. Ming Ri, the second day following the Double Nine Festival in the lunar calendar; Huang Hua, the golden chrysanthemum.
It originally refers to things no longer in existence after changes in situation. It is later used figuratively to refer to things or news that lose their realistic significance, or things or persons that are no longer popular. Derogatory.
出自古代诗词的佳句。明日,指农历九月初九重阳节的第二天。黄花,菊花。
明日黄花,原指事情已经过去,环境也发生了变化,当今不再存在的东西。后来比喻失去现实意的事物或消息。也比喻已经过时不再流行的东西或不再受人重视的人物。具有贬义色彩。
