'赐墙及肩' (cì qiáng jí jiān) metaphorically means shallow knowledge or learning. Derived from the Analects, it uses the height of a wall to represent a person's scholarly attainment, implying limited knowledge if the wall is only shoulder-high.
赐墙及肩 (cì qiáng jí jiān) 比喻才学浅薄。此成语源自《论语》，用墙壁的高度来比喻一个人的学识水平，如果墙只有肩膀那么高，则说明学识有限。
