推理

• 拼音: tuī lǐ
• 汉字拆解: 推 = 扌 (hand) + 隹 (bird, phonetic); 理 = 王 (jade) + 里 (inside) — sorting jade, hence 'principle'

含义

To reason; to infer; logical reasoning. The process of drawing conclusions from premises through logic.

Used both as a verb (to reason) and attributively (推理小说 = detective fiction). Central to legal argumentation, philosophical discourse, and scientific method. In popular culture, strongly associated with detective stories and mystery-solving. Implies step-by-step logical deduction rather than intuition.
