汉字
用法
- Written-register word for a deep, motionless silence of a place or night - 夜晚的森林一片寂静 (yèwǎn de sēnlín yīpiàn jìjìng) the night forest was utterly still.
- Stronger and more literary than 安静 (ānjìng), which is everyday 'quiet, be quiet' you'd say to noisy kids; 寂静 evokes stillness with a faint lonely tone.
- Often paired with 一片 (yīpiàn) or 万物 and used to describe scenery, so it rarely commands a person to be quiet.
例句
- 一片寂静无声。 Yīpiàn jìjìngwúshēng.There was complete silence.
