Definition
罗列 can mean either 'to spread out or arrange items in a display' (like documents on a table) or 'to list or enumerate items one by one' (like reasons or facts in a speech). It is a formal verb often used in written Chinese. Be careful not to confuse it with 列举 (lièjǔ) — 罗列 emphasizes the act of listing itself, while 列举 suggests providing specific instances.
