Character Breakdown

Understanding 心事

The word 心事 refers to worries, concerns, or matters weighing on one's mind. It often implies something personal or emotional that a person may keep inside rather than openly share.

Usage in Conversation

People use 心事 to talk about their inner thoughts or troubles. For example, when someone looks troubled, you might ask if they have 心事, inviting them to share their feelings.

Common Collocations

  • 承受心事 (bear worries): emphasizes silently enduring inner troubles.
  • 心事 (have something on one's mind): indicates someone is preoccupied or worried.
  • 心事重重 (full of worries): describes a person visibly troubled.

Nuances

心事 usually carries an emotional or psychological nuance rather than practical matters. It is often used in informal or semi-formal contexts. Avoid confusing 心事 with 事情, which refers to general affairs or events without the emotional implication.

Example Sentences

If you have something on your mind, you can talk to me about it.

His face was full of worries; he looked very troubled.
