Disciplines and Artistic Qualities
A collection of words related to various disciplines and the unique artistic qualities they possess.
创建 (chuàng jiàn)
create
In Chinese, '创建' (chuàng jiàn) means 'create'. It is used much in the same way as it is in English, to denote the act of bringing something into existence. It could be used when talking about creating art, a new process, or creating an account or identifier in a digital context. Like English, it is not typically used for natural phenomena.
博物馆 (bó wù guǎn)
museum
The Chinese word for museum is '博物馆'. It is used in the same context as it is in English, referring to a place where collections of artifacts or other items of artistic, cultural, historical, or scientific importance are stored and displayed.
原始的 (yuán shǐ de)
original
The Chinese word '原始的' is used to describe something that is first or earliest, keeping its initial status and not having been altered. It can be used in many contexts, the same way 'original' is used in English. For example, it can be used to describe the original version of a book, the original taste of a food, or an original idea, among other things.
Example sentences with 原始的 →小说 (xiǎoshuō)
novel
The Chinese word for 'novel' is '小说.' This term is commonly used to refer to written works of fiction that are typically longer in length. Unlike short stories, which are '短篇小说', '小说' can encompass a broad range of genres, from romance to science fiction.
平衡 (píng héng)
balance
In Chinese, the term '平衡' refers to 'balance'. It can be used in various contexts, such as physical balance, emotional balance or financial balance. It can be used to describe a situation where different things exist in equal or correct amounts. For example, it can be used to describe a well-balanced diet (平衡饮食) or a balance of power (力量平衡).
Example sentences with 平衡 →想像力 (xiǎng xiàng lì)
imagination
The word '想像力' can be used in various contexts in the Chinese language. Similar to English, it can indicate the ability to imagine, or the scope and power of one's imagination. However, '想像力' should not be confused with terms like '创造力' (creativity), which give an additional sense of producing new ideas or things.
Example sentences with 想像力 →照片 (zhào piàn)
photo
The Chinese word for 'photo' is '照片' (zhào piàn). It is used in a similar context as in English; it can be used to refer to a single photo, an album of photos, or the concept of photography. For example, '这是我的照片' means 'This is my photo'.
艺术 (yìshù)
art
The Chinese term '艺术'(yìshù) is used exactly like 'art' in English.
