"Chinese whispers" nghĩa là gì?

"Chinese whispers" = thì thầm kiểu tàu -> nghĩa là tin đồn sai sự thật.

Ví dụ
My idea was to send a story into the world, Chinese whispers style, to see how it could travel. So Gearoid told the story to Aisling, who told it to Cyril, and it started its journey (hành trình)…but did it stay the same?

It is a cliché (câu rập khuôn) that Italians talk all the time about what’s for dinner… and I love talking to my colleagues about what we’re cooking at home while we prepare restaurant meals. It might just be when we have our best ideas. Dishes are passed on like Chinese whispers, ever-evolving, but never new.

In these days of stay-at-home orders and people looking for things to do while sheltering (trú ẩn) in place, chalk up the “telephone game” (also known as “Chinese whispers”) as another activity many are involved in and playing.
