汉字
用法
- Beyond 'ten million', its high-frequency use is an emphatic 'be sure to / whatever you do' with a warning - 千万别忘了 (qiānwàn bié wàng le) whatever you do, don't forget!
- It almost always precedes 别/不要 (a negative command) to stress urgency: 千万小心 (qiānwàn xiǎoxīn) do be careful.
- As a number it means 10,000,000; context (with a command vs a count) tells the two apart instantly.
例句
- 千万别误会我的意思。 Qiānwàn biéwùhuì wǒ de yìsi.Please don't get me wrong.
- 千万不要挑拨夫妻关系。 Qiānwàn búyào tiǎobō fūqī guānxi.Never sow discord between husband and wife.
- 千万不可低估汤姆。 Qiānwàn bùkě dīgū tāngmǔ.Never underestimate Tom.
