一心一意

• 拼音: yī xīn yī yì
• 汉字拆解: 一 = one/single; 心 = heart (emotions, inner feeling); 一 = one/single; 意 = 音 + 心 (sound + heart — intention, will, true inner purpose)

含义

Wholeheartedly and single-mindedly; with complete, undivided devotion. Idiom emphasising that both one's heart and will are entirely focused on a single person, goal, or pursuit.

Stronger and more emphatic than 一心. Used for deep dedication to a career, a relationship, or a cause. 一心一意地爱 (to love with one's whole heart), 一心一意干事业 (devoted entirely to one's career). Implies no distractions, no divided loyalties, and pure, unwavering single-focus commitment. Contrast 三心二意 (half-hearted, wavering).

例句

1. 他一心一意地投入到非遗技艺的传承工作中，拒绝了多家企业的高薪邀请，只愿在工作室里教徒弟、做漆器。
2. 父母一心一意地供孩子读书，省吃俭用二十年，终于看到儿子在学术领域闯出了一片天地。
