Creative / Creativity
創意 is creative or creativity in Chinese characters, old Korean Hanja, and Japanese Kanji.
It can also refer to an original idea or originality.
Unbridled Creativity
不拘一格 is a Chinese proverb that speaks of exploring different styles and not being stuck in conventional thinking.
It can also be translated as “not sticking to one pattern” or “not limited to one type (or style).” The most simple translation is “being creative” or “unbridled creativity.” Some may also say this means “not being stuck in a rut,” in the context of a designer or artist.
If you translate this, the first two characters mean “not stick to” or “not confine oneself to.”
The second two characters mean “one mode,” “one pattern,” “one form,” “one style,” or “one rule.”
Creativity
創造力 is a word that means “strength of creativity” or sort of “creativity (is your) strength.”
This can also be translated as “ingenuity.”
Creativity is the power of imagination. It is discovering your own special talents. Daring to see things in new ways and find different ways to solve problems. With your creativity, you can bring something new into the world.
The first character means “to create,” and the second means “to make or build.” Together they mean “creative.” The third character means “strength.”
