仪表

• Pinyin: yí biǎo
• Desglose de hanzi: 仪 = 人 + 义 (person + righteousness/propriety — proper conduct and appearance); 表 = 毛 + 衣 (fur/hair + clothing — outer surface, exterior)

Significado

apariencia y porte; (técn.) panel de instrumentos/indicadores

In its personal sense, 仪表 emphasises overall bearing and presentation — more formal than 外表. In technical contexts it means instrument gauges or dashboards. 仪表堂堂 (imposing bearing) is a set phrase for dignified, impressive appearance. Distinguish from 仪容 (facial appearance/grooming).
