الشرح 修建 in your Level:

At the A1 level, you should know that '修建' (xiūjiàn) means 'to build'. Even though it is a bit more formal than what you might use every day, you will see it in simple stories about people building houses or making parks. Think of it as a big word for 'make' when you are talking about buildings. You can use it simply: 'They build a house' (他们修建房子). It is helpful to recognize this word because Chinese cities have a lot of construction, and you will see signs or hear people talking about new things being built. Just remember it is for big things like buildings, not small things like toys.

At the A2 level, you can start using '修建' to describe basic infrastructure projects. You should be able to form sentences like 'The government is building a new road' (政府正在修建一条新路). You should also notice that '修建' is often followed by a measure word and a noun, like '一座桥' (a bridge) or '一所学校' (a school). It is a step up from the basic word '做' (to do). Using '修建' makes your Chinese sound more accurate when you are talking about construction. You might also start to see it in past tense contexts, like 'They built this park last year' (他们去年修建了这个公园).

At the B1 level, you should understand the nuance that '修建' implies a professional or organized construction process. You can use it in more complex sentences involving purpose or duration. For example, 'To solve the traffic problem, the city decided to build a subway' (为了解决交通问题，城市决定修建地铁). You should also be able to distinguish '修建' from '维修' (to repair). At this level, you might encounter '修建' in newspaper articles or radio news talking about local development. You should also be comfortable using it in the passive voice, such as 'This temple was built in the Tang Dynasty' (这座寺庙是在唐代修建的).

At the B2 level, you should be able to use '修建' fluently in discussions about urban planning, history, and engineering. You should understand that it is the preferred term for large-scale projects like '修建水利工程' (building water conservancy projects) or '修建高速公路' (building expressways). You can also use it in more formal writing to describe the physical realization of a plan. At this stage, you should also be aware of its collocations with words like '扩建' (to expand and build) or '改建' (to renovate and build). Your sentences should reflect an understanding of the scale and permanence that '修建' implies compared to other verbs of creation.

At the C1 level, you should have a sophisticated grasp of '修建' and be able to use it in academic or professional settings. You can discuss the socio-economic impacts of '修建' large-scale infrastructure in developing regions. You should also be able to recognize it in classical-style modern prose or formal government documents. You might use it metaphorically in very specific literary contexts, though its primary use remains physical. You should also be able to contrast '修建' with '构筑' (to construct/build, often used for defenses or systems) and '营建' (to build, often with an aesthetic or grand connotation). Your usage should be precise, reflecting the specific nature of the construction being described.

At the C2 level, '修建' is a word you use with precision and authority. You understand its historical weight, especially in the context of China's monumental building projects throughout history and into the modern era. You can analyze the etymology of the characters '修' and '建' to explain the deep-seated cultural value of organized labor and architectural legacy. You can use '修建' in high-level debates about sustainable development, heritage preservation, and the philosophy of the built environment. You are capable of identifying subtle stylistic choices where an author might choose '修建' over a more modern or more archaic term to evoke a specific tone or historical period.

修建 في 30 ثانية

修建 (xiūjiàn) means 'to build' or 'to construct' physical structures.
It is primarily used for infrastructure, large buildings, and civil engineering.
The word is formal and implies a planned, professional construction process.
Commonly paired with roads, bridges, railways, and public facilities.

The Chinese verb 修建 (xiūjiàn) is a cornerstone of Chinese vocabulary related to development, infrastructure, and architecture. At its core, it means 'to build' or 'to construct,' but it carries a specific nuance that distinguishes it from more generic terms like '做' (zuò - to do/make) or '造' (zào - to create). When a Chinese speaker uses 修建, they are typically referring to the physical assembly of something substantial, often requiring engineering, planning, and a significant period of time.

Structural Breakdown: The word is composed of two characters: 修 (xiū), which can mean to repair, to study, or to embellish, and 建 (jiàn), which means to establish or to build. Together, they imply not just the act of putting bricks together, but the organized process of creating a structure from the ground up.

为了改善交通，政府计划在河上修建一座新桥。(In order to improve traffic, the government plans to build a new bridge across the river.)

You will encounter this word most frequently in news reports, history books, and formal discussions about urban planning. It is the go-to word for public works like roads, railways, dams, and airports. However, it is also perfectly appropriate for residential construction, such as building a house or a garden. It suggests a level of formality and permanence. You wouldn't use 修建 to describe building a sandcastle or assembling a toy; for those, '堆' (duī) or '搭' (dā) would be more appropriate.

Scale and Scope: While '建设' (jiànshè) often refers to the abstract 'building' of a nation or a culture, '修建' remains grounded in the physical world. It is about the hammers, the concrete, and the physical labor involved in bringing a structure to life.

长城是在两千多年前开始修建的。(The Great Wall began to be built more than two thousand years ago.)

In a social context, saying someone is 修建 a house indicates a significant life event and investment. It conveys respect for the effort and the result. Whether it is a historical monument or a modern skyscraper, 修建 is the verb that bridges the gap between a plan on paper and a physical reality in the landscape.

Using 修建 (xiūjiàn) correctly requires understanding its object-verb relationship. As a transitive verb, it almost always takes a direct object—the thing being built. The structure is usually [Subject] + [修建] + [Object].

Common Objects: Typical objects include 铁路 (tiělù - railway), 道路 (dàolù - road), 房屋 (fángwū - house), 水坝 (shuǐbà - dam), and 公园 (gōngyuán - park).

他们在郊区修建了一座漂亮的别墅。(They built a beautiful villa in the suburbs.)

You can also use 修建 in the passive voice using '被' (bèi), although it is less common than the active voice. For example, '这座塔是被当地居民修建的' (This tower was built by local residents). Additionally, it is often paired with time durations or starting points to show the historical context of a project.

修建这条铁路花了整整五年的时间。(It took exactly five years to build this railway.)

In more advanced usage, 修建 can appear in compound sentences describing the result of the construction. It is a very 'heavy' verb, meaning it carries weight in a sentence and usually serves as the main action. It is rarely used as a secondary verb or in a serial verb construction unless the other verb is related to planning or financing.

You are most likely to hear 修建 (xiūjiàn) in formal and semi-formal contexts. It is a staple of news broadcasts, particularly when discussing China's rapid infrastructure development. When a news anchor announces a new high-speed rail line, they will almost certainly use the word 修建.

News & Media: '我国将修建全球最长的跨海大桥' (Our country will build the world's longest sea-crossing bridge). This kind of headline is very common in Chinese media.

这个项目是为了修建更多的保障性住房。(This project is for building more affordable housing.)

In daily life, if you are walking through a city and see a construction site with a large sign, you might see the word '施工' (shīgōng - construction in progress), but when people talk about the project, they say they are 修建 a new mall or office building. In rural areas, villagers might discuss 修建 a road to connect them to the main highway.

You will also hear it in historical documentaries. When discussing the Ming Dynasty's efforts to fortify the Great Wall or the construction of the Forbidden City, 修建 is the standard term to describe those massive imperial undertakings. It gives a sense of historical gravity and architectural significance.

While 修建 (xiūjiàn) is a straightforward verb, English speakers often over-apply it or confuse it with similar words. The most common mistake is using it for small, non-architectural items.

Mistake: Scale Confusion: Incorrect: 我在修建一个乐高玩具 (I am building a Lego toy).
Correct: 我在搭一个乐高玩具 (I am putting together a Lego toy). 修建 is too formal and 'heavy' for toys.

不要用“修建”来描述建立一个抽象的关系。(Don't use '修建' to describe building an abstract relationship.)

Another error is confusing 修建 with '维修' (wéixiū). While 修建 contains the character '修' (repair), in this compound, it specifically means 'to build new'. If you are fixing a broken bridge, you use '维修' or '修理'. If you are building a brand new bridge, you use 修建. Using 修建 for a repair job sounds like you are completely rebuilding it from scratch.

Lastly, avoid using 修建 for software or digital 'building'. In English, we 'build an app' or 'build a website'. In Chinese, you would use '开发' (kāifā - develop) or '搭建' (dājiàn - set up/build). Saying '修建一个网站' sounds like you are using bricks and mortar to create a webpage, which is linguistically nonsensical.

Chinese has several words for 'building,' each with its own specific context. Understanding the differences between 修建 (xiūjiàn) and its synonyms will greatly improve your fluency.

修建 vs. 建设 (jiànshè): 修建 is physical and specific (a bridge, a road). 建设 is often abstract or large-scale (building a economy, building a spiritual civilization). You '修建' a hospital building, but you '建设' the healthcare system.
修建 vs. 建造 (jiànzào): 建造 is very similar but often used for more 'crafted' things like ships (建造轮船) or unique architectural wonders. 修建 is more common for infrastructure and general civil engineering.
修建 vs. 搭建 (dājiàn): 搭建 is used for temporary or light structures, like a tent (搭建帐篷), a stage (搭建舞台), or metaphorically for a platform or framework.

与其说他在修建房子，不如说他在建造一件艺术品。(Rather than saying he is building a house, it is better to say he is creating a work of art.)

In summary, choose 修建 when you want to sound professional, formal, and focused on the physical act of constructing infrastructure or permanent buildings. It is the workhorse verb for the construction industry and urban development.

How Formal Is It?

حقيقة ممتعة

The character '建' actually contains the radical for 'walking' or 'movement' (廴), suggesting that building in ancient times was often related to the movement of troops or the establishment of outposts along a path.

The word is a compound of two ancient characters. '修' (xiū) originally appeared in seal script, depicting a person cleaning or decorating something with water and a brush.

المعنى الأصلي: To repair and establish; to put in order and build up.

Sino-Tibetan

السياق الثقافي

Be careful when discussing '修建' in the context of historical sites; sometimes '修建' (building) can be controversial if it involves destroying older structures.

In English, we use 'build' for almost everything. In Chinese, '修建' is more restricted to physical structures and infrastructure, making it more specific than the English 'build'.

The construction of the Three Gorges Dam (三峡大坝). The building of the Great Wall (长城). The Forbidden City (故宫) construction.
