The vocabulary used across ECHOLIO readings, in one place. English term first, Chinese term second; each entry is one sentence and links to the article that develops it.

ECHOLIO半卷底色

A self-knowledge reading service that turns one Gregorian birth date into a written description of your undertone. The Chinese name is 半卷底色; the system name is 人生行为说明书读译体系.

undertone底色

The stable texture of how you behave — not a category you belong to, and not a verdict. It describes tendencies you can check against your own week.

core hue主色

The layer a reading shows you first: how you behave under load, rather than how you describe yourself when asked. It is not an average of the other layers and not a verdict.

reading读底 / 读译

One written pass over a single birth date, in four published layers. The arithmetic is checkable; the prose is written to be argued with.

blockage卡点

A strength that has lost its counterweight. It is not a defect, which is why removing it usually removes the strength too.

nine core hues九主色

The nine positions on the scale: 启明 Qiming, 和声 Hesheng, 燃动 Randong, 谋定 Mouding, 行空 Xingkong, 丰裕 Fengyu, 澄明 Chengming, 镇山 Zhenshan, 造境 Zaojing. A hue describes texture, not rank.

nine blockages九卡点

Going it alone, clinging, rushing, holding fast, drifting, controlling, over-thinking, carrying too much, scattering. 孤行、依附、躁进、固守、游离、掌控、悬思、负累、弥散.

kintsugi金缮

A repair metaphor: mending a break with gold so it becomes the most visible part of the object rather than something hidden. Applied to a pattern: you work it until it holds instead of sanding it down.

harmony reading和鸣读底

A two-person reading that describes the interaction between two dates: which habits reinforce, which cancel, where the friction is structural. It gives no compatibility score and does not say who is at fault.

half-scroll半卷

The central image: the first half of a scroll is already written and was not your choice; the second half is still blank. A reading is only useful if it lands on the second half.

daily card每日卡

A one-line daily prompt: one number, one sentence, one thing to look for today. It is a prompt to notice, not a forecast.

personality test (contrast)人格测试（对照）

A test scores your answers about yourself; a reading starts from a date you did not choose. The two inputs produce different kinds of claims.
