How it is used
- 'To make stand out prominently / highlight' - 凸显问题的严重性 (tūxiǎn wèntí de yánzhòngxìng) to throw the seriousness of the problem into relief.
- A somewhat formal/written word; the 凸 (to protrude) gives a sense of something bulging into visibility. Near-synonym 突出 (tūchū) overlaps closely.
