Character Breakdown

Meaning and Usage

The word 录像 (lùxiàng) primarily refers to video recording or the recorded video itself. It is commonly used to describe the act of capturing moving images with a camera or device, as well as the resulting video file or footage.

Common Contexts

You will often hear 录像 in contexts involving smartphones, cameras, security footage, or any situation where video documentation is involved. For example, recording events, meetings, or surveillance videos.

Collocations and Patterns

  • 录像设备 (lùxiàng shèbèi): video recording equipment
  • 录像 (lùxiàngdài): videotape (older format)
  • 录像 (lùxiàngjī): video recorder or camcorder
  • 录像播放 (lùxiàng bōfàng): video playback

These collocations help specify the tools or actions related to video recording.

Usage Notes

When using 录像, the focus is on the visual recording aspect, often implying a moving image rather than just a photo. It can be used as a noun (the recording) or a verb (to record video). Unlike 拍照 (to take photos), 录像 emphasizes continuous motion capture.

Avoid confusing 录像 with 录音, which specifically means audio recording. Both can be combined in multimedia contexts but refer to different media types.

Example Sentences
