属于

The Chinese word '属于' is used in situations where you want to express ownership or affiliation. It is used just like 'belong' in English, to denote that something is part of something bigger. For instance, '这个包属于我' means 'This bag belongs to me.'

Here's how to use it:

• 这个笔记本属于我。
  Zhège bǐjìběn shǔyú wǒ.
• 这个任务属于我们的责任。
  Zhège rènwu shǔyú wǒmen de zérèn.

The Chinese word '划分' refers to the action of dividing something into parts. It is often used when discussing the division of tasks, resources, geographical areas, etc.

The Chinese word '包围' literally translates to 'surround' in English. It is commonly used to signify that something is completely covering or enclosing another thing or place. It can also be used to represent a situation where a person or group is closely watched or pressured by people. For example, '我们被敌人包围了' means 'We are surrounded by enemies.'

显示

xiǎn shì

The Chinese word '显示' is the direct translation of the English word 'display'. It is used in the same way as 'display' in English when it comes to referring to make something visible or apparent. For example, a monitor 'displays' an image, in Chinese, we would say a monitor '显示' an image. The word can be used in various contexts like television screens, digital displays, and any public showing or an indication of a particular state or condition.

Here's how to use it:

强调

In Chinese, '强调' is used to emphasize the importance of something or to accentuate something. It can be used in similar contexts as it would be in English, to stress the significance or importance of a particular object, idea, or concept.

Here's how to use it:

• 强调这一点是因为它对我们至关重要。
  Qiángdiào zhè yīdiǎn shì yīnwèi tā duì wǒmen zhìguān zhòngyào.
