1. 1/pərˈfekʃən/ · /pəˈfekʃən/完美

    The state of being perfect — having no faults or mistakes at all. It's also used to praise something done extremely well, even if it's not literally flawless — "the steak was cooked to perfection." Because true perfection is so hard to reach, the word is often used a little loosely, as high praise rather than a literal claim.
