-====== jìshù: 技术 - Technology, Skill, Technique ====== +
-===== Quick Summary ===== +
-  * **Keywords:** jishu, 技术, Chinese for technology, what does jishu mean, Chinese skill, technique in Chinese, 高科技, 信息技术, Chinese tech industry, tech in China, HSK 3 vocabulary +
-  * **Summary:** Discover the meaning of **技术 (jìshù)**, the essential Chinese word for "technology." This comprehensive guide explains how **jìshù** means more than just computers and gadgets; it also covers "skill" and "technique," applying to everything from China's high-tech ambitions to an individual's driving ability. Learn how to use **jìshù** correctly to discuss the Chinese tech industry, personal abilities, and the cultural importance of technical know-how in modern China. +
-===== Core Meaning ===== +
-  * **Pinyin (with tone marks):** jìshù +
-  * **Part of Speech:** Noun +
-  * **HSK Level:** HSK 3 +
-  * **Concise Definition:** Technology, technique, or a specialized skill. +
-  * **In a Nutshell:** **技术 (jìshù)** is the go-to Chinese word for "technology" in the modern sense—think information technology, AI, and engineering. However, its meaning is broader and more grounded than the English word. It fundamentally refers to a systematic method or a specific skill used to accomplish a task. This means you can use **jìshù** to talk about a company's advanced production **technology** as well as a chef's cooking **technique** or a mechanic's repair **skills**. The common thread is a practical, applied know-how. +
-===== Character Breakdown ===== +
-  * **技 (jì):** This character means "skill" or "ability." It's composed of the hand radical `扌(shǒu)`, which signifies an action done with the hands, and `支 (zhī)`, which provides the sound. `技` points to a tangible, hands-on ability or craft. +
-  * **术 (shù):** This character means "method," "technique," or "art" (as in "the art of war"). It implies a systematic, learned approach or a specialized body of knowledge. +
-  * **Combined Meaning:** When you combine the "hand-skill" of `技` with the "systematic method" of `术`, you get **技术 (jìshù)**. This beautifully captures the essence of the word: a practical skill that is based on a systematic method. It perfectly describes both a craftsman's technique and a scientist's technological application. +
-===== Cultural Context and Significance ===== +
-In modern China, **技术 (jìshù)** is a word loaded with national significance. For decades, China's narrative has been one of catching up with and surpassing the West, and developing advanced **技术** is at the heart of this ambition. Government slogans like "科技兴国" (kējì xīngguó) - "revitalize the nation through science and technology" - are ubiquitous. This makes **技术** a keyword associated with progress, modernity, and national pride. +
-Let's compare **技术 (jìshù)** to the English word "technology." +
-  *   In the West, "technology" can sometimes feel abstract or futuristic, referring to the entire digital ecosystem. +
-  *   **技术 (jìshù)**, while used for the same things, feels more concrete and practical. Because it also means "skill," it's always tied to the idea of *application* and *competence*. You can have "good **技术**" (好技术 hǎo jìshù) or "bad **技术**" (技术不好 jìshù bù hǎo) in driving, programming, or even surgery. You wouldn't say "my driving technology is bad" in English; you'd say "my driving skill/technique is bad." +
-This subtle difference highlights a pragmatic cultural value: **技术** is not just an abstract concept to be discussed, but a practical tool to be mastered and applied for tangible results, whether for personal improvement or national development. +
-===== Practical Usage in Modern China ===== +
-**技术** is an extremely common and versatile word used in many contexts. +
-=== In Science, IT, and Industry === +
-This is its most frequent usage, directly translating to "technology." +
-  * **高技术 (gāo jìshù):** High-tech +
-  * **信息技术 (xìnxī jìshù):** Information Technology (IT) +
-  * **核心技术 (héxīn jìshù):** Core technology +
-  * **生物技术 (shēngwù jìshù):** Biotechnology +
-=== For Personal and Professional Skills === +
-It describes the proficiency of a person in a specific, often technical, craft or trade. +
-  * **驾驶技术 (jiàshǐ jìshù):** Driving skill/technique +
-  * **烹饪技术 (pēngrèn jìshù):** Cooking technique +
-  * **摄影技术 (shèyǐng jìshù):** Photography technique +
-  * **他的技术很好 (tā de jìshù hěn hǎo):** His skill is very good. +
-The connotation is almost always neutral or positive. Praising someone's **技术** is a common and sincere compliment. +
