用法
- Two senses: 'suddenly' and 'to neglect'. 忽然 (hūrán) = suddenly, roughly synonymous with 突然 (tūrán).
- 忽然 vs 突然: 忽然 is usually adverbial (忽然下雨了 it suddenly rained), while 突然 can also be an adjective ('sudden').
- 忽视 (hūshì) = to overlook/ignore; 忽略 (hūlüè) = to neglect/leave out a detail; 忽冷忽热 (hūlěng-hūrè) = hot and cold, changeable.
