迷雾

Meaning of 迷雾

迷雾 (míwù) is fog and mist — 迷 (to bewilder) and 雾 (fog). It suggests mystery and disorientation; 拨开迷雾 (dispel the mist) means to see through confusion to the truth.

To say Mist in Chinese, pronounce 迷雾 as Mí wù. The marks over the letters show the tones — the pitch contour that distinguishes Mandarin syllables.
