用法
- To encounter (something adverse); also one's (bitter) experiences - 遭遇困难 (zāoyù kùnnan) to run into difficulties; 悲惨的遭遇 (bēicǎn de zāoyù) a tragic ordeal.
- Unusual in being both verb and noun: as a noun it's the hardship someone has been through.
- The encounter is usually unexpected and unwelcome, unlike neutral 遇到 (yùdào).
