Definition
列举 (liè jǔ) is a formal compound verb meaning 'to list or enumerate' — it emphasizes providing a detailed, itemized list, often in speech or writing. It is more comprehensive than 列 (liè), which simply means 'to list' (often in a written list), and differs from 数 (shǔ), which focuses on counting items one by one.
