What does "suspense" mean?
"Guanzi" originally refers to the credit certificate used in the transaction of payment before delivery in the Southern Song Dynasty, and later it is extended to stories, critical points of events, secrets and so on.

suggestion

"Suspense" has its allusions, which originated in Song Qinzong and Zhao Huan in the Southern Song Dynasty. At that time, the economy was developed, and in the process of barter, metals such as silver were at a prominent disadvantage in the transaction. Militarily, influenced by timeliness, it is urgent to find a tool that can relatively replace currency to realize its function.

This prompted the emergence of "imprisonment". The specific operation method is: businessmen exchange spare money for printing money, and then sell printing money in a specific place in different places in exchange for copper coins or goods. Imprisonment must have played the role of money, and it is precisely because it played the role of media that the word imprisonment came into being.

meaning

Later, the meaning of this word was strengthened and expanded, and it got rid of the actual expression of Guanzi. For example, "Come on, don't be a suspense." It means, don't hide anything, tell me everything you know.

This extension, first, the extension of the meaning of Guanzi itself, used to refer to the credit certificate used in the transaction of paying first and then picking up the goods, and later extended to the story, the urgency of the incident, the secret and so on. The second is the meaning extension of the word suspense.

In addition, suspense can also be used as a compliment and play a rhetorical role. For example, in the process of telling a story to students, when it comes to scenic spots, we can say "suspense, imagine how things will develop next" to guide students to fully imagine and expand their thinking.

Generally speaking, whether the word "suspense" is positive or negative depends on the specific language environment and situational environment and should be treated differently.
