运气

yùnqì

运气 (Yùnqì) is often used in similar ways to the English word 'luck'. It can be used generally to refer to one's fortune or fate. It's especially used to describe the result of an event that's determined more by chance than by one's control. It's not uncommon to hear someone wishing another person good luck by saying 祝你好运 (Zhù nǐ hǎo yùn) in Chinese.

Here's how to use it:

• 我就知道运气会转的。
  Wǒ jiù zhīdào yùnqì huì zhuǎn de.
• 运气实在太糟糕了。
  Yùnqì shízài tài zāogāo le.
• 这是运气的问题。
  Zhè shì yùnqì de wèntí.

输入

shūrù

The Chinese word '输入' is often used in the context of entering information, such as typed data into a computer, much like its English equivalent, 'enter'. It is not commonly used for physically entering a space, as 'enter' may be used in English.

Here's how to use it:

• 您可以输入您的用户名。
  Nín kěyǐ shūrù nín de yònghù míng.
• 请输入正确的密码。
  Qǐng shūrù zhèngquè de mìmǎ.

  Wǒ xūyào shūrù wǒ de xìnxī.

感激

gǎn jī

The Chinese word '感激' means gratefulness. It is often used to express deep appreciation or thankfulness toward a kind action or gesture made by others. Similar to its usage in English, '感激' can be used in a wide range of scenarios, from expressing gratitude for a friend's assistance to acknowledging the support of people in difficult times.

Here's how to use it:

• 我非常感激你的帮助。
  Wǒ fēicháng gǎnjī nǐ de bāngzhù.
• 他对那些帮助他的人们充满感激。
  Tā duì nàxiē bāngzhù tā de rénmen chōngmǎn gǎnjī.

检查员

jiǎncháyuán

In Chinese, '检查员' means inspector and is used in similar contexts to English. It refers to a person who inspects something, especially for compliance with a specific set of standards. In various fields, including business, education, law enforcement, and public safety, there are inspectors.

Here's how to use it:

• 检查员不放过任何一个角落。
  Jiǎncháyuán bù fàngguò rènhé yīgè jiǎoluò.

立即

The Chinese word '立即' is used to show something is occurring right now or without any delay. It conveys a sense of urgency just like the English word 'immediate.' It is often used in situations where a particular action or decision needs to be made or taken instantly.
