- To transcribe; to write down what is said.
§ Basic Usage: 笔录 as a Verb
The most straightforward way to use 笔录 is as a verb, meaning 'to transcribe' or 'to record (what is said)'. It often implies a formal or official context, like taking notes during a meeting, an interview, or a legal proceeding. Think of it as putting spoken words into written form.
请你把他的证词笔录下来。
- Translation hint
- Please transcribe his testimony.
会议期间，秘书负责笔录。
- Translation hint
- During the meeting, the secretary was responsible for taking notes (transcribing).
§ Using 笔录 with 下来 (xiàlai)
You'll often see 笔录 paired with the directional complement 下来 (xiàlai). This combination emphasizes the action of 'writing down' and often implies completion or the result of the action – the words have been successfully written down. It's very common and adds a natural flow to your sentences.
他把整个对话都笔录下来了。
- Translation hint
- He transcribed the entire conversation.
请你把老师说的话笔录下来。
- Translation hint
- Please write down what the teacher said (transcribe it).
§ 笔录 as a Noun: 'The Transcript/Record'
Interestingly, 笔录 can also function as a noun, referring to the written record or transcript itself. This is quite common, especially in formal contexts like legal documents or official reports.
这份笔录非常重要。
- Translation hint
- This transcript/record is very important.
他正在整理会议的笔录。
- Translation hint
- He is organizing the meeting's minutes/transcript.
§ Differentiating from other 'write' words
You might be wondering how 笔录 is different from other words like 写 (xiě, to write) or 记录 (jìlù, to record). Here's the deal:
- 写 (xiě): This is the general verb for 'to write'. You write a letter (写信), you write homework (写作业). It doesn't necessarily imply recording spoken words.
- 记录 (jìlù): This means 'to record' in a broader sense. You can record data, record events, or even record a video. While it can also mean to record speech, 笔录 specifically focuses on the act of writing down spoken words, often verbatim or in detail. 记录 can be less formal or detailed.
- 笔录 (bǐlù): This is specific. It's about transcribing spoken language into written form, usually in a more formal or official capacity.
他写了一封信。
- Translation hint
- He wrote a letter. (General writing)
我们记录了实验数据。
- Translation hint
- We recorded the experimental data. (General recording)
法官要求笔录被告的口供。
- Translation hint
- The judge requested to transcribe the defendant's statement. (Specific to spoken words)
So, when you're talking about writing down someone's exact words, especially in a structured or official way, 笔录 is your best bet.
