visionary
含义: Thinking about or planning the future with imagination and wisdom; characterised by bold, original ideas about what could be achieved.
Visionary functions as both an adjective and a noun. As an adjective, it describes ideas, plans, or leadership that look far beyond current conventions — 'visionary architecture,' 'a visionary proposal.' As a noun, it denotes a person with exceptional foresight and creative ambition. 'A visionary leader,' 'visionary thinking,' and 'a true visionary' are standard collocations. The word is overwhelmingly positive in modern usage, though historically it could mean 'impractical dreamer.'
