汉字
用法
- 从中 (cóngzhōng) means 'from within (a situation), out of it,' typically before a verb like 获利, 得益, 调解: 他从中获利 (tā cóngzhōng huòlì) - he profited from it.
- It's a formal, written adverbial and always implies a larger context or process that something is drawn from - you can't use it to mean simple physical 'from the middle of' a room, that's 从中间.
- Common collocations: 从中调解 (cóngzhōng tiáojiě, to mediate between the parties), 从中作梗 (cóngzhōng zuògěng, to sabotage from within) - this last a set idiom.
例句
- 他从中国回来了。 Tā cóng zhōngguó huílái le.He came back from China.
- 从中选一个。 Cóng zhōngxuǎn yígè.Choose one from among these.
