用法
- Pairs with abstract nouns to name a style or manner of doing something: 生活方式 (shēnghuó fāngshì, lifestyle), 付款方式 (fùkuǎn fāngshì, payment method).
- Compare 方法 (fāngfǎ): 方法 is a concrete technique or procedure for solving a problem, while 方式 is the broader manner or style - you say 生活方式, never 生活方法.
- Takes the measure word 种: 一种方式 (yì zhǒng fāngshì, one way/approach).
