1. 脆瓜打狗 零碎

1. "Crack a melon to beat a dog; it's a mess." This is a literal translation of the Chinese phrase "脆瓜打狗 零碎" (cuì guā dǎ gǒu líng suì). However, the phrase is not a common idiom or proverb, and its meaning might not be clear without context. It seems to be a combination of two separate actions: "cracking a melon" and "beating a dog," with "零碎" (líng suì) meaning "messy" or "disorderly." The translation provided attempts to convey the literal actions and their result.
