静止

• 병음: jìng zhǐ
• 한자 분석: 静 = 青 (blue-green, clear) + 争 (contend) — absence of contention, stillness; 止 = pictograph of a foot stopping

뜻

정지하다; 움직이지 않다

Describes a physical state of complete absence of movement. Used in physics (静止状态 = state of rest), photography (keep still), and philosophy. Contrasts with 运动 (motion). In Chinese philosophy, 静止 is considered a relative state since the universe is in perpetual change — a point often made in dialectical materialism and Taoist thought.
