There is indeed a big difference between the dragon in the west and the dragon in the east!
This sacred totem in the East, a legendary creature, appeared in various literary, artistic works, buildings, and memorials. It had huge wings, powerful power and magical abilities, and was a symbol of power and sacredness before the Middle Ages.
In Christianity, it is synonymous with evil.
This is because although Chinese is always "dragon", dragon (English: Dragon), as a concept that does not originate in Chinese, is not equivalent to the meaning and meaning of "龙" in Chinese translation.
In Latin, "draconem" can also refer to giant snakes, while in ancient Greek, "drakon" refers to giant sea snakes or sea monsters. The root "drak-" of "drakon" means "watching", so "drakon" may literally mean "the one who has the (dead) watcher".
Now that we understand the difference between the two cultures to a great degree, it may be that they do not mean the same thing in the first place!
Of course, these are not separated in this cartoon!
In this film, the dragon can be tamed and raised as a pet, and it looks like a flying dog—a dog!
Haha, well, cartoons, why take it seriously!
