-===== Core Meaning ===== +
-  * **Pinyin (with tone marks):** fùzhì +
-  * **Part of Speech:** Verb +
-  * **HSK Level:** HSK 4 +
-  * **Concise Definition:** To make an identical version of something; to copy, duplicate, or reproduce. +
-  * **In a Nutshell:** **复制 (fùzhì)** is the most common and direct word for "to copy" in Chinese. Think of it as the "Ctrl+C" of the Chinese language. It's a neutral term used for making an exact, often mechanical or digital, duplicate of something, whether it's a physical document, a computer file, or a key. +
-===== Character Breakdown ===== +
-  * **复 (fù):** This character means "to repeat," "again," or "to restore." It often implies doing an action a second time. +
-  * **制 (zhì):** This character means "to make," "to create," or "to manufacture." It contains the radical for knife (刀), suggesting the act of crafting or shaping something. +
-  * Together, **复制 (fùzhì)** literally means "to repeat the making" or "to make again," which perfectly captures the modern meaning of creating an identical copy. +
-===== Cultural Context and Significance ===== +
-While **复制 (fùzhì)** is a straightforward, modern term, the concept of copying has deep and nuanced roots in Chinese culture, particularly in contrast with Western ideals. +
-In traditional Chinese arts like calligraphy and painting, meticulous copying was not seen as plagiarism but as a fundamental, respected method of learning. A student would spend years exactly **replicating** the works of old masters. This act of **复制 (fùzhì)** was a way to internalize the techniques, aesthetics, and spirit of the art form. Mastery of form through faithful reproduction was considered a prerequisite for developing one's own style. This contrasts with the Western emphasis on "originality" from the very beginning of an artist's training. +
-In a more modern, and controversial, context, **复制 (fùzhì)** is the action behind the phenomenon of **山寨 (shānzhài)**—the culture of producing knock-offs or imitation goods. While the word **复制** itself is neutral, its application in this area touches on complex issues of intellectual property, innovation, and economics in contemporary China. It highlights a cultural tension between the traditional value of faithful reproduction and the global push for originality and copyright. +
-===== Practical Usage in Modern China ===== +
-**复制 (fùzhì)** is an everyday verb with several key applications. Its connotation is generally neutral but can become negative if it implies a lack of creativity or plagiarism. +

-  * **On the Computer (Digital Use):** This is the universal term for digital copying. It is almost always paired with **粘贴 (zhāntiē)** for "paste." +
-    * The full phrase is **复制粘贴 (fùzhì zhāntiē)** - "Copy and Paste". +
-    * Example: "First **copy** this text, then paste it into the email." (先**复制**这段文字，然后粘贴到邮件里。) +
