Definition
超现实 is an attributive adjective (attr.) meaning 'surreal' or 'surrealistic'. It describes something that feels dreamlike, bizarre, or beyond ordinary reality — often used in art, literature, or everyday situations that seem strange or unreal. Unlike the English 'surreal', which can also be a noun ('the surreal'), 超现实 is strictly used as a modifier before a noun (超现实风格 'surreal style', 超现实画面 'surreal scene').
