史无前例

• 拼音: shǐ wú qián lì
• 汉字拆解: 史 = 口 + 又 (history, records, historian); 无 = 一 + 灬 (none, without); 前 = 前 (before, in front); 例 = 人 + 列 (example, precedent, case)

含义

Unprecedented in history; without historical precedent. Describing something that has never occurred before in recorded history.

A four-character set phrase (成语) used to emphasise the exceptional, groundbreaking nature of an event, achievement, or situation. It carries strong rhetorical force and is used in formal speeches, news reports, academic papers, and political declarations. Can describe achievements (史无前例的突破 — an unprecedented breakthrough) or disasters (史无前例的灾难— an unprecedented catastrophe). Overuse can dilute its impact.

正确说法
