Collocations and patterns

Notes

When using 解释, the speaker implies a need for clarity or understanding. It is more formal than just saying "" (to say) and is often used in written or formal spoken Chinese. Avoid confusing 解释 with 说明, which also means "to explain" but often emphasizes providing information or instructions rather than clarifying reasons or meanings.
