汉字
用法
- Two sides: positive 'proud (of)' - 为你骄傲 (wèi nǐ jiāo'ào) proud of you; and negative 'arrogant/conceited' - 他太骄傲了 (tā tài jiāo'ào le) he's too arrogant.
- Context and framing decide: 为…骄傲 is warm pride; standing alone it often criticizes conceit.
- Contrast 自豪 (zìháo, proud), which is only the positive sense - safer when you mean healthy pride.
