| 释义 | creation (once / 319 pages) 1n 2n Use the noun creation to describe bringing something into existence, such as the creation of a new organization or the creation of a cutting-edge computer program. Creation often describes the act of producing something for the first time, but it can also refer to the thing that's produced. In this sense, it often describes something involving artistic talent. If you write a short story, you'd probably ask your friends to read your artistic creation. Creation also can be used to refer the universe in general. If your sister does something remarkable, you might say that in all of creation there's never been a sister like that.
