Character Breakdown

Meaning and Usage

"门口" literally means "door entrance" or "doorway." It refers to the area right at or in front of a door, often the main entrance to a building or room.

Common Contexts

It is frequently used in daily life to specify a meeting point (e.g., "门口" - waiting at the door), to describe where something is placed (e.g., "门口包裹" - package at the door), or to give instructions related to access (e.g., "不要门口" - don't block the doorway).

Collocations and Patterns

  • 门口 (wait at the door): used when arranging to meet someone.
  • 门口 (placed at the door): describes location of objects.
  • 门口 (block the doorway): common phrase to warn against obstructing passage.

Usage Notes

"门口" is a noun and usually functions as a location noun. It is often combined with verbs of motion or placement. It is more specific than just "" (door), emphasizing the area around the door rather than the door itself.

Avoid confusing "门口" with "" alone, as "门口" implies the space or area at the door, not just the door structure.

Example Sentences

We are waiting for you at the doorway.

There is a delivery package placed at the door.

Please do not block the doorway to allow everyone to come and go easily.
