推移

• 拼音: tuī yí
• 汉字拆解: 推 = 扌 (hand) + 隹 (bird, phonetic); 移 = 禾 (grain) + 多 (many) — shifting grain crops

含义

To shift; to pass; to evolve over time. Describing the gradual passage or movement of time and the changes that accompany it.

Almost always collocates with 随着时间的推移 (as time passes/with the passage of time). Used to describe gradual change or development over a period. Rarely used for spatial movement — it is essentially a time-related word in modern usage. Common in formal writing, analysis, and reflective prose.

例句
