长篇累牍 (cháng piān lěi dú)

from Chinese Word of the Day | 每日一词 · host Gallant Guo

特师的每日一词,2026年1月12日的词汇是:长 cháng 篇 piān 累 lěi 牍 dú释义 Definition长篇累牍的意思是文章或讲话写得很长,内容又多又啰嗦。长 cháng 篇 piān 累 lěi 牍 dú means that an article or speech is written very long, with content that is both excessive and verbose.例句 Example《诗人十四个》这本书的自序中,作者黄晓丹是这样用这个词的:「由于古诗的意思不是那么一望即知,所以我除了经常会背诵一些莫名其妙的诗外,还要长篇累牍地讲解它们的意思。」这里说的是作者为了解释难懂的古诗,不得不写很多文字来详细说明。In the preface of the book 'Poets Fourteen', the author Huang Xiaodan uses this term as follows: 'Since the meaning of ancient poems is not immediately obvious, aside from often reciting some inexplicable poems, I also have to explain their meanings at great length.' Here, it refers to the author having to write extensively to elaborate on the meanings of difficult-to-understand ancient poems.你知道吗? Did You Know?你知道吗?「长篇累牍」和「连篇累牍」意思很像,都形容文章冗长。但「连篇」更强调一篇接一篇,而『长篇』更突出单篇文章的长度。这个词来源于古代,「牍」是竹简或木片,古人写字用它们,写多了自然就「累牍」了。比如,写报告时如果内容太多、不简洁,别人可能就会说:「你的报告有点长篇累牍,可以再精简些。」Did you know? '长 cháng 篇 piān 累 lěi 牍 dú' and '连 lián 篇 piān 累 lěi 牍 dú' have very similar meanings, both describing lengthy articles. However, '连 lián 篇 piān' emphasizes one article after another, while '长 cháng 篇 piān' highlights the length of a single article. This term originates from ancient times; '牍 dú' refers to bamboo slips or wooden tablets, which the ancients used for writing—naturally, writing a lot resulted in '累 lěi 牍 dú'. For example, if a report has too much content and lacks conciseness, someone might say, 'Your report is a bit long-winded; it could be more streamlined.'
