小品

• Pinyin: xiǎo pǐn
• Desglose de hanzi: 小 = small; 品 = three 口 stacked (multiple mouths/categories — variety of types)

Significado

Sketch cómico; pieza breve (también: breve ensayo en prosa).

In modern Chinese, 小品 almost exclusively refers to the comic sketches (相声-adjacent but scripted) that are the highlight of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. In classical literature, it refers to short, lyrical prose essays (小品文). The two meanings coexist but modern usage strongly favours the comic sketch sense.

Ejemplos

1. 春晚上的小品年年让观众捧腹大笑，已成为中国人过年的一部分文化记忆。
2. 他曾在大学期间参演话剧和小品，积累了丰富的舞台表演经验。
3. 这篇小品文语言简洁隽永，寥寥数百字便勾勒出一幅生动的山居图。
