用法
- 薄 is polyphonic: báo describes literal physical thinness (纸很薄 zhǐ hěn báo - the paper is thin; 衣服穿得太薄 too thin clothing), while bó is used in abstract, more formal compounds.
- 薄弱 bóruò (weak, e.g. 基础薄弱 weak foundation) and 单薄 dānbó (thin/flimsy, of a body, argument, or clothing in a literary sense) both use the bó reading.
- As an antonym pair, 薄 báo contrasts with 厚 hòu (thick) the same way 'thin' contrasts with 'thick' in English.
