过错

guòcuò

The Chinese word '过错' represents a wrong or a mistake made by an individual. Just like in English, '过错' can be used in a variety of contexts. It can be used to denote errors made in work or studies, moral or ethical faults, flaws in character, or mistakes in judgement. The intensity of the fault can also vary, from minor oversights to major transgressions.

Here's how to use it:

• 我承认我的过错.
  Wǒ chéngrèn wǒ de guòcuò.
• 每个人都有过错，只是程度不同。
  Měi gè rén dōu yǒu guòcuò, zhǐshì chéngdù bù tóng.
• 你不能因为一次过错就放弃。
  Nǐ bùnéng yīnwèi yīcì guòcuò jiù fàngqì.

工作室

gōng zuò shì

The Chinese word '工作室' is used in similar contexts as the word 'studio' in English. It can refer to a place where an artist, photographer, sculptor, etc. works. It can also refer to a place specially designed for recording TV and radio programs, films, music, etc.

关键

guānjiàn

In Chinese, '关键' (guānjiàn) means critical or key. It can be used in many contexts similarly to the English word, from '关键问题' (key issue), '关键时刻' (critical moment), to '关键人物' (key person); it denotes something of most importance or the pivotal factor in a situation.

Here's how to use it:

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:

• 输入命令以继续。
  Shūrù mìnglìng yǐ jìxù.
• 请输入查询条件。
  Qǐng shūrù cháxún tiáojiàn.

柔和

róu hé

The Chinese word for 'soft' is '柔和'. It is often used to describe things that are soft to touch or soft in nature. For instance, it could be used to describe the texture of a pillow, a person's character or demeanor, and even the gentle nature of light or sound.

Here's how to use it:

• 她眼神柔和而亲切。
  tā yǎnshén róuhé ér qīnqiè
