用法
- 肌 is a bound, somewhat technical/medical character for muscle or flesh; the everyday spoken word for 'muscle' is the two-character 肌肉 jīròu.
- 肌肤 jīfū is a literary, softer word for 'skin' (as in skincare ads or poetry), more elegant than the plain, clinical 皮肤 pífū.
- You'll see 肌 alone in compound scientific terms (心肌 xīnjī heart muscle, 肌肤 jīfū) but never as a freestanding word in conversation.
