Why is 把 used in 把闲置玩具打包以后?

把 is used to highlight what is being handled and what happens to it.

The pattern is:

把 + object + verb/result

So here:

把 + 闲置玩具 + 打包

means take the unused toys and pack them up.

This structure is very common when:

• the object is specific and known
• the action changes, moves, disposes of, or affects that object
• there is often a clear result

Using 把 makes the sentence feel more like we dealt with the unused toys by packing them up.

What exactly does 闲置 mean here?

闲置 means left unused, idle, or not being used for the moment.

So 闲置玩具 means:

• unused toys
• toys sitting around not being used

It sounds a bit more formal or written than just saying the toys are not being played with. You often see 闲置 with things like:

• 闲置房屋 — unused house/property
• 闲置设备 — idle equipment
• 闲置物品 — unused items

Why is 打包 used? Does it just mean pack?
