Character Breakdown

Usage of 个别

The word 个别 is commonly used to refer to something 'individual' or 'specific' within a larger group. It often highlights exceptions or particular cases rather than the whole. For example, 个别学生 (individual students) points to some students, not all.

Common Collocations

  • 个别学生: individual students, used when referring to some students needing special attention.
  • 个别情况: individual cases, often used to indicate exceptions.
  • 个别分析: individual analysis, focusing on each item separately.

Nuances

个别 emphasizes separation or distinction within a group. It is more formal and precise than just saying (some). It can also imply exceptions or special treatment.

Avoiding Confusion

Do not confuse 个别 with 个人 (personal) or (single). 个别 stresses 'some but not all' or 'specific ones' rather than just 'one'.

Example Sentences
