-====== qíngxù: 情绪 - Emotion, Mood, State of Mind ====== +
-===== Quick Summary ===== +
-  * **Keywords:** 情绪, qíngxù, Chinese emotion, Chinese mood, qingxu meaning, how to say emotion in Chinese, Chinese feelings, emotional state in Chinese, 心情, 感情, Chinese culture and emotions. +
-  * **Summary:** Learn the essential Chinese word **情绪 (qíngxù)**, meaning emotion, mood, or one's general state of mind. This page breaks down the characters, explores its deep cultural significance in China (including its link to traditional medicine), and provides practical examples. Understand the crucial difference between **情绪 (qíngxù)**, **心情 (xīnqíng)**, and **感情 (gǎnqíng)** to avoid common mistakes and speak more naturally about feelings in Mandarin. +
-===== Core Meaning ===== +
-  * **Pinyin (with tone marks):** qíngxù +
-  * **Part of Speech:** Noun +
-  * **HSK Level:** HSK 5 +
-  * **Concise Definition:** A person's overall emotional state, mood, or feelings. +
-  * **In a Nutshell:** **情绪 (qíngxù)** is the general, overarching term for "emotion." Think of it as your emotional weather—it can be stable or unstable, good or bad. While other words describe a specific mood or a deep feeling for someone, **情绪** refers to the general condition of your feelings at a given time, often with a slightly clinical or psychological overtone. +
-===== Character Breakdown ===== +
-  * **情 (qíng):** This character is all about feelings and emotions. Its left side, the "heart radical" (心), clearly indicates that it relates to matters of the heart and mind. It appears in words like "love" (爱情, àiqíng) and "feeling" (感情, gǎnqíng). +
-  * **绪 (xù):** This character originally meant the end of a thread of silk (the 纟 radical means "silk"). By extension, it came to mean a continuous thread, a state, or a mood. It suggests something that is continuous, complex, and can get tangled—much like our emotions. +
-When combined, **情绪 (qíngxù)** literally means the "thread of feeling," a powerful image for the continuous and often complicated nature of our emotional state. +
-===== Cultural Context and Significance ===== +
-In Chinese culture, the management of **情绪 (qíngxù)** is deeply important and differs significantly from many Western cultures. +
-Traditionally, Chinese culture values social harmony (和谐, héxié) and emotional restraint. Publicly displaying strong **情绪**, especially negative ones like anger or intense sadness, can be seen as immature, disruptive, and causing a loss of "face" (面子, miànzi). The ideal is often to remain calm and composed (冷静, lěngjìng), especially in public or professional settings. This contrasts with some Western norms where open emotional expression is often encouraged as a sign of authenticity. +
-Furthermore, in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), **情绪** is not just mental but directly linked to physical health. The "Seven Emotions" (七情, qī qíng) are believed to directly impact organ function. For example: +
-  *   Anger (怒, nù) injures the liver. +
-  *   Excessive joy (喜, xǐ) injures the heart. +
-  *   Worry (思, sī) injures the spleen. +
-  *   Sadness (悲, bēi) injures the lungs. +
-  *   Fear (恐, kǒng) injures the kidneys. +
-Therefore, maintaining stable **情绪** (情绪稳定, qíngxù wěndìng) is considered essential for a long and healthy life. +
-===== Practical Usage in Modern China ===== +
-**情绪** is a common word used in various contexts, from daily conversation to professional psychology. +
-  *   **Neutral/Clinical Use:** It's often used in a neutral or objective way to describe an emotional state. For example, a doctor might ask about a patient's emotional state, or a news report might discuss the public's **情绪**. +
-  *   **Negative Connotation:** In daily conversation, saying someone "**有情绪 (yǒu qíngxù)**" (lit. "has emotions") often implies they are in a bad mood, sulking, or being difficult. Similarly, calling someone "**情绪化 (qíngxùhuà)**" means they are "moody" or "overly emotional," which is generally not a compliment. +
-  *   **Positive/Negative States:** You can easily describe the quality of one's **情绪** with adjectives. For example, "**情绪很好 (qíngxù hěn hǎo)**" means "in a good mood," while "**情绪低落 (qíngxù dīluò)**" means "in low spirits." +

-===== Nuances and Common Mistakes ===== +
-The biggest challenge for learners is distinguishing **情绪** from two similar words: **心情 (xīnqíng)** and **感情 (gǎnqíng)**. +
-  *   **情绪 (qíngxù) vs. 心情 (xīnqíng) - Emotion vs. Mood** +
-    *   **心情 (xīnqíng)** means "mood." It's more personal, temporary, and common in daily speech to describe how you feel *right now*. "My mood today is great!" is **我今天心情很好!** (Wǒ jīntiān xīnqíng hěn hǎo!). +
-    *   **情绪 (qíngxù)** is a broader, more stable "emotional state." It can sound more formal or clinical. While you can say **情绪很好**, it's less common for describing a simple good mood than **心情很好**. **情绪** is better for describing a general pattern (e.g., "His emotional state has been unstable recently"). +
-  *   **情绪 (qíngxù) vs. 感情 (gǎnqíng) - State vs. Affection** +
-    *   This is a "false friend" trap. Both can be translated as "feeling," but they are not interchangeable. +
-    *   **感情 (gǎnqíng)** refers to deep, long-term feelings of affection, attachment, or the bond between people. It's about connection. +
-    *   **情绪 (qíngxù)** is a temporary emotional state or mood. +
-    *   **Incorrect:** ~~我对我的家人有很深的**情绪**。~~ (I have a deep //qíngxù// for my family.) This sounds like you're in a constant, moody state about your family. +
-    *   **Correct:** 我对我的家人有很深的**感情**。 (Wǒ duì wǒ de jiārén yǒu hěn shēn de **gǎnqíng**.) (I have deep feelings/affection for my family.) +
