Character Breakdown

Understanding 表情 (biǎoqíng)

The word 表情 primarily refers to facial expressions that convey emotions or thoughts. It is commonly used to describe how someone's feelings are reflected on their face, such as happiness, sadness, anger, or surprise.

Usage in Conversation

表情 is often used to comment on or observe someone's mood or reaction without words. For example, you might say “表情严肃” to indicate someone looks serious. It can also describe sudden changes in mood, like “表情突然开心起来.”

Common Collocations

  • 表情丰富: rich or varied facial expressions, often indicating emotional depth.
  • 表情严肃: serious or solemn expression, used in formal or tense situations.
  • 表情: facial expression, emphasizing the face specifically.
