-  * **Summary:** The Chinese word **主持人 (zhǔchírén)** translates to host, presenter, or emcee (MC). It refers to the professional individual who guides a television show, radio program, conference, or ceremony. Understanding **主持人** is key to discussing Chinese media and events, as they are often major public figures who control the flow and tone of a program. This page will break down its meaning, cultural importance, and practical use in modern China. +
-===== Core Meaning ===== +
-  * **Pinyin (with tone marks):** zhǔ chí rén +
-  * **Part of Speech:** Noun +
-  * **HSK Level:** HSK 4 +
-  * **Concise Definition:** A person who presides over, hosts, or presents at an event, show, or ceremony. +
-  * **In a Nutshell:** Think of a **主持人** as the central pillar of a show or event. They are not just introducing people; they are the "main person holding" the entire event together. They manage the energy, interview guests, transition between segments, and ensure everything runs smoothly. The term implies a professional role with significant responsibility and control. +
-===== Character Breakdown ===== +
-  * **主 (zhǔ):** Meaning "main," "primary," or "host." Imagine a lamp with a flame (丶) on top—it's the main source of light, the central point. +
-  * **持 (chí):** Meaning "to hold," "to grasp," or "to support." The character is composed of the "hand" radical (扌) and a character for a temple (寺), suggesting the act of formally or carefully holding something important. +
-  * **人 (rén):** Meaning "person." It's a simple pictogram of a person. +
-When combined, **主持人 (zhǔchírén)** literally means the "main-holding person"—the individual who holds the primary responsibility for an event. +
-===== Cultural Context and Significance ===== +
-In Chinese culture, the role of a **主持人** is often more formal and respected than that of a typical "host" or "MC" in the West. Famous **主持人**, especially those on the state-run network CCTV, are major celebrities and are often seen as authoritative, knowledgeable, and morally upright figures. They are the face of their programs and are expected to guide the public discourse in a responsible manner. +
-Compare this to a Western talk show host like Jimmy Fallon, who is primarily an entertainer. While a Chinese **主持人** can also be entertaining, there's often an underlying expectation of them being a role model and setting a certain standard. The prestige of the profession is highlighted by the "Golden Microphone Awards" (金话筒奖, Jīn Huàtǒng Jiǎng), the highest official honor for broadcasters and hosts in China. Being a successful **主持人** is a highly respected and sought-after career path. +
-===== Practical Usage in Modern China ===== +
