汉字
用法
- Drive / enthusiasm and energy for doing something - 大家干劲十足 (dàjiā gànjìn shízú) everyone is full of drive.
- Frames: 干劲十足, 鼓足干劲, 干劲儿 (with erhua in speech). About motivated energy poured into work.
- 干 reads gàn (to work) here, and 劲 reads jìn. Contrast 劲头 (jìntóu), a close synonym for vigor/gusto; 干劲 specifically ties that energy to working hard.
