show, don't tell

短语

英文释义

短语
  1. Advice to writers: convey an impression by the way that events are described in the narrative, and not by explicitly stating facts.
    — The second flaw is a flagrant violation of “show, don't tell.” Don't tell readers that she's sad and he's mad. Show the reader what they do. Worst of all, don't do both!
