意思
To ignore advice, warnings, or good intentions.
文化背景
Germans value efficiency and direct communication. Ignoring advice is seen as a waste of time. Similar to German, the 'wind' metaphor is used to show that advice is fleeting. The 'horse's ear' idiom shows that advice is useless to someone who doesn't care. Americans might say 'I told you so' instead of using this specific idiom.
