[2024-10-01] Unlock Chinese: Dare to Debate with Logic!

留下

liú xià

In Chinese, '留下' is used to represent the idea of something remaining or staying behind. It can be used to express that a person or object stays in a place. It is frequently used in both casual and formal contexts.

Here's how to use it:

• 不要忘记留下你的联系方式。
  Búyào wàngjì liúxià nǐ de liánxì fāngshì.
• 留下一份份你的笑容。
  Liúxià yī fèn fèn nǐ de xiào róng.
• 留下一段无法忘记的历史。
  Liúxià yīduàn wúfǎ wàngjì de lìshǐ.

精神的

jīngshén de

The Chinese word '精神的' refers to anything relating to the human spirit or soul, not just the physical or material aspects. It is used to refer the things related to religion, spirits, ghost, or culture, commonly used in literature, philosophy, and daily conversation.

Here's how to use it:

• 他是精神的支柱。
  Tā shì jīngshén de zhīzhù.
• 精神的滋养源于艺术。
  Jīngshén de zīyǎng yuányú yìshù.
• 他怀疑自己的精神的稳定性。
  Tā huáiyí zìjǐ de jīngshén de wěndìngxìng.

辩论

biàn lùn

In Chinese '辩论' means debate. This is used in most instances where two or more individuals or groups provide differing viewpoints on a specific topic. It can be used in any context, formal or informal.

Here's how to use it:

• 我们需要为辩论做准备。
  wǒ men xū yào wèi biàn lùn zuò zhǔn bèi.
• 辩论不仅要会说，也要会听。
  biàn lùn bù jǐn yào huì shuō, yě yào huì tīng.
• 在辩论中，他的论点被反驳了。
  zài biàn lùn zhōng, tā de lùn diǎn bèi fǎn bó le.

敢

gǎn

The Chinese word '敢' is very similar to the English word 'dare' in usage. It implies a sense of willingness to take on challenges or perform an action that requires courage. Just like in English, it can be used in various contexts, either for positive encouragement or in situations that involve risk. However, while 'dare' can also be used to form a question to challenge someone in English, '敢' is not usually used in that way in Chinese.

Here's how to use it:

• 他敢说，敢做。
  tā gǎn shuō, gǎn zuò.
• 你敢保证你不再迟到吗？
  nǐ gǎn bǎo zhèng nǐ bú zài chí dào ma?
• 他敢于承认自己的错误。
  tā gǎn yú chéng rèn zì jǐ de cuò wù.

逻辑

lǒjí

In Chinese, '逻辑' (lǒjí) is used to refer to the system or set of principles underlying the arrangements of elements in a computer or electronic device, as understood by the user. It can also be used in the sense of reasoning conducted or assessed according to strict principles of validity.

Here's how to use it:

• 逻辑性何在？
  Luójí xìng hé zài?
• 你的逻辑真的很混乱。
  Nǐ de luójí zhēn de hěn hùnluàn.
• 逻辑和教育一样重要。
  Luójí hé jiàoyù yīyàng zhòngyào.
