Transitory Meaning in English
word
释义
Lasting only for a short time; not permanent or enduring.
用法与细微差别
Most common in formal, literary, or academic contexts. Often paired with words like 'nature' ('the transitory nature of...'). Do not confuse with 'transient' or 'temporary'—'transitory' emphasizes the briefness and the fact that it will not last.
