脱节

• Pinyin: tuō jié
• Desglose de hanzi: 脱 = 月 (flesh/body) + 兑 (exchange, shed); 节 = 艹 (grass) + 即 (then, joint)

Significado

desconectarse; ir desfasado; no estar en sintonía

Used for physical disconnection (a joint coming apart) and — much more commonly — abstract disconnection: theory and practice falling out of sync, supply not matching demand, knowledge being outdated relative to the real world. 理论与实践脱节 (theory detached from practice) is a near-set phrase in Chinese academic and policy discourse.
