"一个人以为说硬词就能理解难懂的事物。"

Simplified Meaning:

When someone uses big, complicated words, they might think they understand tough topics, but that's not always true. It's like if someone talks a lot about how to fix a car using technical terms but has never actually fixed a car themselves. Just because they know the words doesn't mean they actually know how to do it. Understanding something truly means being able to explain or do it in a simple way. For example, a teacher who can explain a difficult math problem in a way that young kids understand shows real understanding. If you want to really grasp a difficult subject, focus on learning it deeply rather than just using fancy language to talk about it.
