简短地

jiǎn duǎn de

The Chinese word '简短地' is used to describe something done in a short or concise manner, much like 'briefly' in English. It can be used in the same contexts as in English, such as talking briefly about a topic or someone acting briefly.

Here's how to use it:

Here's how to use it:

• 我可以在任何时间来找你
  wǒ kěyǐ zài rènhé shíjiān lái zhǎo nǐ

The Chinese word '航空公司' is used to denote an organization providing air travel services for traveling passengers and freight. This is the equivalent of 'airline' in English.
