粗略

• 拼音: cū lüè
• 汉字拆解: 粗 = 米 + 且 (coarse); 略 = 田 + 各 (brief, strategy)

含义

Rough; sketchy; cursory. Describes something that lacks detail or precision, giving only a general outline.

Used for estimates, overviews, calculations, or examinations that are approximate rather than thorough. Not necessarily negative — sometimes a rough estimate is appropriate. Often modified by 地 as an adverb.
