Culmination implies that something has been building over time and has now reached its peak or conclusion. It is almost always used with 'of' — 'the culmination of years of research,' 'the culmination of a distinguished career.' Unlike 'climax,' which can suggest drama or excitement, culmination often conveys a sense of achievement or inevitability. It appears frequently in biographical writing, historical accounts, and journalism.

Culmination暗示某事物经过长时间的积累,如今达到了其顶峰或终结。它几乎总是与'of'搭配使用——'the culmination of years of research(多年研究的成果)''the culmination of a distinguished career(杰出职业生涯的顶峰)'。与可能暗示戏剧性或兴奋感的'climax'不同,culmination通常传达一种成就感或必然性。该词频繁出现在传记写作、历史叙述和新闻报道中。
Culmination implica que algo se ha ido gestando con el tiempo y ha alcanzado ahora su punto álgido o su conclusión. Se usa casi siempre con «of»: «the culmination of years of research», «the culmination of a distinguished career». A diferencia de «climax», que puede sugerir dramatismo o emoción, culmination suele transmitir un sentido de logro o inevitabilidad. Aparece con frecuencia en biografías, relatos históricos y periodismo.
Culminationは何かが時間をかけて積み上げられ、ついにその頂点や結末に達したことを意味します。ほぼ常にofと組み合わせて使われます(「the culmination of years of research」「the culmination of a distinguished career」など)。ドラマや興奮を示唆しうるclimaxとは異なり、culminationは達成感や必然性を伝えることが多いです。伝記、歴史的記述、ジャーナリズムで頻出します。
Culmination은 무언가가 오랜 시간에 걸쳐 쌓여 왔으며 이제 최고점 또는 결론에 이르렀음을 함축한다. 거의 항상 'of'와 함께 사용된다—'수년간의 연구의 집대성', '빛나는 경력의 정점'. 극적 흥분을 시사할 수 있는 'climax'와 달리, culmination은 성취감이나 필연성의 느낌을 전달하는 경우가 많다. 전기, 역사 서술, 저널리즘에서 빈번하게 등장한다.
