清明

• 拼音: qīng míng
• 汉字拆解: 清 = 氵+ 青 (clear/pure); 明 = 日 + 月 (bright/enlightened)

含义

Clear and bright; lucid and enlightened. As a noun: Qingming, the traditional Chinese tomb-sweeping festival. As an adjective: mentally clear, politically enlightened, or morally upright.

Has two distinct but related uses. As an adjective, it describes clear thinking, upright governance, or a bright, clear atmosphere. As a proper noun, 清明节 (Qingming Festival) falls around 5 April and involves ancestral rites, grave-sweeping, and spring outings. Both senses share the core meaning of clarity and purity.
