How it is used
- Rapid and forceful - fast growth or movement with power - 经济迅猛发展 (jīngjì xùnměng fāzhǎn) the economy is developing at breakneck speed.
- Combines 迅 (swift) + 猛 (fierce); typical with 发展/增长/势头 to stress explosive, powerful speed.
- 迅猛 adds force to speed - stronger than 快速 (kuàisù, fast) or 迅速 (xùnsù, prompt); think "surging" rather than merely quick.
