Word origin

旅 (lǚ, "travel") + 途 (tú, "path or course") forms a word for the passage made from the start of travel to the point of arrival.

Usage tips

  • In the example, calling the journey long can refer to the remaining time, the remaining distance, or both, so the word need not describe a physically long route only.
