多劳多得

Chinese HSK 7-9 Vocabulary Chinese ★★ 2/5 neutral duō láo duō dé
拼音 duō láo duō dé
汉字拆解 多 = more/greater; 劳 = 力 (strength) + 荧 (toil) — exertion; 得 = 彳 + 旦 + 寸 — to obtain; the phrase mirrors its own structure: more effort → more reward

含义

The more you work, the more you earn; a principle that rewards and compensation should be proportional to the amount of effort or work contributed.

A core principle of socialist distribution theory in China, officially enshrined in reform-era policy as part of 按劳分配 (distribution according to work). Also widely used in workplace incentive systems, piecework pay structures, and motivational contexts. The phrase reflects a meritocratic value of effort-based reward and is often contrasted with 平均主义 (egalitarianism/equal shares regardless of effort).
