Question

鸡犬之声相闻,老死不相往来。
Is meaning: very close neighbour but never say hello to each other?

Answer

Yes. So near that sounds of cock’s crowing and dog’s barking can be heard, but the parties will never interact with each other for a lifetime. Meaning in modern days just means they don’t understand  and communicate with each other.
