How it is used
- The journey / the road traveled, often stressing distance or hardship - 路途遥远 (lùtú yáoyuǎn) the journey is long and far.
- Also figurative for a life or career course (人生路途 the road of life).
- More literary than 路上 (lùshang, on the way); 路途 evokes the whole trek and its difficulty rather than a physical road segment.
