Definition
顺畅 (shùnchàng) describes something that is smooth and unhindered, like traffic, progress, or speech. It overlaps with 顺利 (shùnlì) for progress, but 顺畅 also covers physical flow (roads, writing) that 顺利 does not. Compared to 流畅 (liúchàng), which emphasizes elegance and ease in movement or expression, 顺畅 is more about the absence of obstacles.
adjective
(of traffic, progress, etc.) smooth and unhindered(of speech, writing, etc.) fluent
