-  * **Summary:** Learn the Chinese word for ending, **结局 (jiéjú)**. This essential HSK 4 noun refers to the conclusion or final result of a story, movie, event, or even a relationship. This guide breaks down its meaning, cultural significance (like the famous "happy reunion ending"), and practical use in modern China. Discover how **结局 (jiéjú)** differs from a simple "result" and master its use with over 10 example sentences. +
-===== Core Meaning ===== +
-  * **Pinyin (with tone marks):** jiéjú +
-  * **Part of Speech:** Noun +
-  * **HSK Level:** HSK 4 +
-  * **Concise Definition:** The ending, conclusion, or final outcome of a developing situation, especially a story. +
-  * **In a Nutshell:** **结局 (jiéjú)** is the word you reach for when you're talking about how something "ends." Think of it as the final chapter of a book, the last scene of a movie, or the ultimate outcome of a long-term relationship or conflict. It carries a sense of narrative finality—the point where the story is over and the fate of the characters or the situation is revealed. +
-===== Character Breakdown ===== +
-  * **结 (jié):** This character's original meaning is "to tie a knot." By extension, it means to bind, connect, or to conclude. Think of "tying up" loose ends at the end of a story. +
-  * **局 (jú):** This character can mean a situation, an office/bureau, or a game (like a game of chess). In this context, it refers to the overall "situation" or the final "state of the board." +
-  * Together, **结局 (jiéjú)** literally translates to "the concluding situation" or "tying up the game." It paints a vivid picture of bringing all the moving parts of a situation to their final, settled state. +
-===== Cultural Context and Significance ===== +
-  * In Chinese storytelling, from classical literature to modern TV dramas, there is a strong cultural preference for a **大团圆结局 (dàtuányuán jiéjú)**, or a "Great Reunion Ending." This is more specific than a simple Western "happy ending." A **大团圆结局** typically involves: +
-    *   The family being reunited and safe. +
-    *   The virtuous and heroic characters being rewarded. +
-    *   The villains receiving their just punishment. +
-    *   Social harmony being restored. +
-  * This reflects traditional Confucian values emphasizing family, social order, and clear moral outcomes. While Western stories certainly have happy endings, they also have a strong tradition of tragic heroes, ambiguous endings, or endings that prioritize individual self-fulfillment over group harmony. For Chinese audiences, the emotional satisfaction of seeing the family unit whole and the community in balance is often the most desired **结局**. Modern stories, of course, play with this expectation, sometimes delivering a deliberately sad or open-ended **结局** for artistic effect. +
-===== Practical Usage in Modern China ===== +
-  * **结局** is a very common word in everyday conversation, especially when discussing media or personal life. +
-  * **Discussing Books, TV, and Movies:** This is the most common usage. People constantly ask about or comment on the **结局** of a popular drama or film. +

-  * **Describing Real-Life Outcomes:** It can be used to describe the final outcome of personal situations, like relationships or long-term conflicts. It implies a narrative quality to the event. +
-    *   `"他们的爱情故事有了一个悲伤的结局。"` (Their love story had a sad ending.) +
-  * **Connotation:** The word **结局** itself is neutral. Its emotional flavor comes from the adjectives used with it, such as **圆满的 (yuánmǎn de)** - perfect/happy, **悲惨的 (bēicǎn de)** - tragic, or **出人意料的 (chūrényìliào de)** - unexpected. +

-===== Nuances and Common Mistakes ===== +
-  * The most common point of confusion for learners is the difference between **结局 (jiéjú)** and **[[结果]] (jiéguǒ)**. +
-  * **结局 (jiéjú): Ending / Narrative Conclusion.** Use this for the end of a story, a movie, a relationship, or a long, developing situation. It focuses on the final state of a narrative. +
-    *   **Correct:** 这个故事的**结局**很感人。(The **ending** of this story is very touching.) +
-    *   **Incorrect:** 这次考试的**结局**是九十分。(The **ending** of this test was 90 points.) +
-  * **[[结果]] (jiéguǒ): Result / Outcome.** Use this for the direct consequence of an action, calculation, experiment, or test. It is more factual and less narrative. +
-    *   **Correct:** 这次考试的**结果**是九十分。(The **result** of this test was 90 points.) +
-    *   **Incorrect:** 这个故事的**结果**很感人。(The **result** of this story is very touching.) +
-  * **Think of it this way:** An experiment has a **结果 (result)**. A story has a **结局 (ending)**. A soccer match has a **结果 (result)**, but if you describe the dramatic final season of the team, you might talk about its **结局 (ending)**. +

-  * [[悲剧]] (bēijù) - Tragedy. A genre of story defined by its sad or disastrous **结局**. +
