What does Sichuan dialect mean by cutting cats?

Cutting cats means frog in Sichuan dialect.

Sichuan dialect belongs to southwest mandarin, also known as Bashu dialect. Today's Sichuan dialect was formed during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. In the movement, Sichuan dialect, which was popular in Sichuan before the Ming Dynasty, and immigrant dialects in Huguang, Guangdong and Jiangxi gradually evolved and merged.

Chengdu dialect is the standard pronunciation of Sichuan opera and various folk arts. At the same time, due to the high degree of internal interoperability of Sichuan dialect, there is no obstacle to communication between dialect areas. Sichuan dialect is a general term, so Sichuan dialect itself has no standard pronunciation.

Some linguists believe that Sichuan dialect is not the same as Sichuan dialect, because besides Sichuan dialect, there are other commonly used Chinese in Sichuan Province, such as Tukan dialect (Hakka dialect) and Laohuguang dialect (Xiang dialect), which are all distributed in various parts of Sichuan in the form of dialect islands. At the same time, there are a large number of users of Tibetan, Yi and Qiang languages in Sichuan Province. However, due to its strong position in Sichuan, Sichuan dialect is actually the lingua franca. Generally speaking, the users of Tukan dialect and Laohuguang dialect are also Sichuan dialect users, while some Tibetan Yi and Qiang areas, especially Kangding, Yajiang, Zhaojue, Marcand, Songpan and Danba, also use Sichuan dialect with similar accents.
