Character Breakdown

Meaning and Usage

The verb "树立" (shù lì) means to firmly establish or set up something abstract or concrete, such as values, examples, or systems. It often implies a deliberate and lasting establishment, not just a temporary setup.

Common Contexts

Collocations and Patterns

  • 树立信心 (to establish confidence): used when encouraging someone to build self-confidence.
  • 树立形象 (to establish an image): often used in business or public relations.
  • 树立目标 (to set up goals): used in personal development or planning.

Nuances

"树立" carries a tone of permanence and seriousness. It is more formal and stronger than simply "建立" (to build or establish) when referring to abstract concepts. Avoid using it for casual or physical objects.

Common Confusion

Do not confuse "树立" with "设立" which is more often used for physical establishments like offices or organizations. "树立" is more abstract and ideological.
