特色用語

堅持和完善中國特色社會主義制度、推進國家治理體系和治理能力現(xiàn)代化，是關系黨和國家事業(yè)興旺發(fā)達、國家長治久安、人民幸福安康的重大問題。
Upholding and improving the socialist system with Chinese characteristics and modernizing the state governance system and capacity is a major issue that impacts on the full development of the undertakings of our Party and state, the long-term stability of the country, and the happiness and wellbeing of the people.

總起來說，中國特色社會主義制度和國家治理體系是以馬克思主義為指導、植根中國大地、具有深厚中華文化根基、深得人民擁護的制度和治理體系，是黨和人民長期奮斗、接力探索、歷盡千辛萬苦、付出巨大代價取得的根本成就，我們必須倍加珍惜，毫不動搖堅持、與時俱進發(fā)展。
In summary, guided by Marxism, the Chinese socialist system and state governance system have developed from the real conditions and culture of China, and they enjoy the full support of the people. They represent the most fundamental achievement of the Party and the people through lengthy struggle and strenuous effort. We must treasure them, uphold them with determination, and keep them up to date.

我反復講，鞋子合不合腳，只有穿的人才知道。中國特色社會主義制度好不好、優(yōu)越不優(yōu)越，中國人民最清楚，也最有發(fā)言權。
I have often said that only the wearer of the shoes knows if they fit or not. The Chinese people know best whether the Chinese socialist system suits the country or not.

“凡將立國，制度不可不察也。”
"A state system must be established when founding a country."
