沉下心来 (chén xià xīn lái)

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

特师的每日一词,2026年1月13日的词汇是:沉 chén 下 xià 心 xīn 来 lái释义 Definition沉下心来的意思是让心情平静下来,集中注意力,不浮躁。The phrase '沉 chén 下 xià 心 xīn 来 lái' means to calm one's mind, focus attention, and avoid restlessness.例句 Example近期的《看天下》杂志中,有篇标题为《文物修复师曼妥思:倒流时间,不着急》的文章,作者明雪菲是这样用这个词的:「返工是最好的老师,阿思不得不沉下心来。他自述,这份工作打磨掉了他个性中的急。」这里说的是文物修复师通过反复练习,学会了静心工作。In a recent issue of Vista Magazine, an article titled 'Cultural Relic Restorer Mentos: Reversing Time, No Rush' by Ming Xuefei uses this term as follows: 'Rework is the best teacher; Asi had to calm his mind (沉 chén 下 xià 心 xīn 来 lái). He recounted that this job polished away the impatience in his character.' This describes how a cultural relic restorer learns to work with a tranquil mind through repeated practice.你知道吗? Did You Know?「沉下心来」和「静下心来」意思相近,但沉更强调深度和专注,比如「沉下心来学习」。它常用来描述需要耐心的事情,比如做手工、读书或解决问题。反义词是心浮气躁。这个词源于古人认为心像水一样,浮躁时水面波动,沉静时才能看清事物。'沉 chén 下 xià 心 xīn 来 lái' is similar in meaning to '静 jìng 下 xià 心 xīn 来 lái', but '沉' emphasizes depth and concentration, as in 'calm down to study'. It is often used to describe tasks requiring patience, such as crafting, reading, or problem-solving. Its antonym is '心 xīn 浮 fú 气 qì 躁 zào'. The term originates from the ancient belief that the heart is like water—when restless, the surface ripples; only when calm can one see things clearly.
