“毛病”一词本不是指人,而是指马的缺点。古人看马好不好,要看毛如何。马身上的毛旋儿有好有坏,位置生得不好就是“毛病”。后来,“毛病”由专指马扩大到其他事物,凡是有缺点或有妨害的地方,都可称为毛病了。古时候,马在人们的生活中占有很重要的地位。所以,人们对马的要求特别严格。相马首先就是看马的毛色如何,有没有不足的地方。明代的徐咸在《相马书》中说:“马旋毛者,善旋五,恶旋十四,所谓毛病,最为害者也。”意思是说,卷曲的马毛,有好有坏,位置生得不好,就是毛病。如果主人骑的话,就会有害处。 The word “illnesses” does not mean people, but refers to the shortcomings of the horse.
