长揖是腿不弯曲而站着行礼的，即拱手至额然后弯腰而下手及地，由于腰的尽可能弯曲，使拱手的幅度从最上的前额到最下的地面，恰似一人的长度，因而把这种礼节叫“长揖”。长揖是位卑者向位尊者行的仅次于跪拜礼的一种礼节，表达了位卑者对位尊者不附炎趋势的态度。

Changyi is the salute made by a person of lower standing to a person of higher standing only second to kneeling salute, showing the attitude of being neither naughty nor humble of a person of lower standing to a person of higher standing.
