汉字
用法
- A collective term covering both officers and rank-and-file soldiers - 全体官兵 (quántǐ guānbīng) all officers and men.
- Military/organizational register; treats a unit as one body (leaders + troops together), so it's plural in sense.
- Not used for a single soldier; for that use 士兵 (shìbīng) or 军官 (jūnguān) separately.
