一举一动

• 拼音: yī jǔ yī dòng
• 汉字拆解: 一 = one/each; 举 = 手 + 舁 (hand + lift jointly — to raise, an act); 一 = one/each; 动 = 重 + 力 (heavy + strength — to move, to act)

含义

Every single action; each and every move; one's every gesture and behaviour. Used when someone's actions are being carefully watched, scrutinised, or imitated.

A four-character idiom built on parallel structure: 一举 (a single act/move) + 一动 (a single movement). Together they mean 'every single thing one does.' Commonly used with verbs of observation: 注视 (watch), 监控 (monitor), 观察 (observe), 注意 (pay attention to), or 模仿 (imitate). Often implies being under close scrutiny.
