leopard豹子,change改變;變化,spot斑點,a leopard can't change its spots跟中文的“江山易改,本性難移”相對應,說明改變人的本性的比江山的變遷還更難,盡管人們很努力去改變自己,但并沒有從根本上進行。

【例句】
He has always been a dishonest person, and it's clear that a leopard can't change its spots.
他一直都是一個不誠實的人,而且很明顯,本性難移。

She promised to stop procrastinating, but it seems that a leopard can't change its spots. She's still leaving everything until the last minute.
她承諾停止拖延,但看來本性難移。她仍然把所有事情拖到最后一刻。
