📖 Meaning
The plans devised leave no shortfall in wisdom or resourcefulness. It describes strategizing that is thorough, comprehensive, and completely reliable, with no overlooked details or weaknesses.
📜 Origin Story
This idiom does not have a single widely cited classical source. The character 谞 (ěr) denotes wisdom or resourcefulness, and 遗谞 refers to a deficiency or gap in that wisdom. Combined, the phrase conveys that one's strategizing has no weakness or oversight. It appears in various classical commentaries and military writings praising flawless planning. The idiom is less common than the near-synonymous 算无遗策 but carries the same connotation of comprehensive foresight.
💡 Example Usage
诸葛亮谋无遗谞,每次制定战略都周密稳妥,令将士们十分信服。
Zhuge Liang's strategizing left no room for error; every battle plan he devised was thorough and reliable, earning the complete trust of his generals.
