"imagination" in Chinese (Simplified)
想象力
Definition
想象力是指在脑海中形成当前并未真实发生的画面、想法或故事的能力。它也指创造性地想到新可能性的能力。
Usage Notes (Chinese (Simplified))
常和 'use', 'have', 'spark', 'capture' 连用,如 'use your imagination'、'a vivid imagination'。通常是正面含义,但在 'just your imagination' 里表示某事并不真实。不要和 'fantasy' 混淆,后者通常更偏向脱离现实或奇幻题材。
