接收

jieshou الأكثر شيوعاً #2,000

At the A1 level, learners are just beginning their journey into the Chinese language. The concept of 'receiving' is fundamental, but the specific word 接收 (jiē shōu) is generally considered slightly too advanced or specific for absolute beginners, who usually focus on the simpler 收到 (shōu dào) for receiving gifts or letters. However, introducing 接收 early on in the context of modern technology is highly beneficial. A1 learners live in a digital world, and understanding why their phone says '接收中...' (Receiving...) is a practical, real-world application of the language. At this stage, the explanation focuses purely on the most basic, tangible use: electronic devices getting signals or files. We teach the word as a fixed chunk associated with technology. We do not delve into the administrative or medical uses. The grammatical structure taught is the simplest Subject-Verb-Object: 手机接收信号 (Phone receives signal). We emphasize pronunciation, ensuring the first tone on 'jiē' and the first tone on 'shōu' are clear and flat. By learning 接收 in this restricted, highly relevant context, A1 learners build a foundation for understanding the difference between human reception (收到) and machine reception (接收) early on, preventing deeply ingrained bad habits later. They learn to recognize the characters on their computer screens and mobile devices, empowering them to navigate Chinese software interfaces. The vocabulary load is kept light, pairing 接收 only with words they might already know or easily learn, like 手机 (mobile phone), 电脑 (computer), and 信号 (signal). This targeted approach ensures the word is accessible without overwhelming the beginner with its broader semantic complexities.

At the A2 level, 接收 (jiē shōu) becomes an essential vocabulary word. Learners at this stage are expanding their ability to describe everyday routines, basic technical issues, and simple news events. The explanation of 接收 broadens significantly. We reinforce the technological usage—receiving emails, downloading files, getting Wi-Fi signals—but we also introduce the concept of institutions receiving people. This is a crucial step in understanding the objective nature of the word. A2 learners are taught sentences like '医院接收病人' (The hospital receives patients) and '学校接收学生' (The school receives students). This helps them see that 接收 is about systems and capacities, not just electronics. Grammatically, we introduce the resultative complement 到 (dào), teaching the difference between the ongoing process (正在接收) and the completed action (接收到了). This is a major milestone in A2 grammar. We also heavily emphasize the distinction between 接收 and 接受 (jiē shòu). A2 is the perfect time to correct the common English-speaker mistake of using one word for all types of 'receiving'. We use clear, contrasting examples: 'You 接收 a signal, but you 接受 an apology.' By drilling this distinction, learners develop a more native-like intuition for Chinese vocabulary categorization. The vocabulary paired with 接收 expands to include 邮件 (email), 数据 (data), 病人 (patient), and 学生 (student). The focus remains on practical, high-frequency contexts that an A2 learner might encounter in daily life, travel, or basic media consumption, ensuring the word is firmly cemented in their active vocabulary.

As learners progress to the B1 level, their linguistic world expands into more abstract and professional domains. The explanation of 接收 (jiē shōu) at this stage delves into its use in news, business, and formal administration. B1 learners are starting to read simple news articles and listen to broadcasts, where 接收 is frequently used to describe corporate acquisitions or government actions. We introduce the meaning of 'to take over' or 'to appropriate'. Sentences like '政府接收了这家银行' (The government took over this bank) become part of their repertoire. This highlights the power dynamics often inherent in the word when used outside of technology. Grammatically, B1 learners are expected to handle more complex sentence structures, including the passive voice using 被 (bèi). We teach how to construct sentences where the received object is the focus: '信号被成功接收' (The signal was successfully received). We also introduce adverbs of manner and degree to modify the verb, such as 成功地 (successfully), 顺利地 (smoothly), or 勉强 (barely). The distinction between 接收, 接受, and 收到 is reviewed and deepened, with more nuanced examples. We also introduce the noun usage of 接收, such as in '接收器' (receiver) or discussing the '接收能力' (reception capability) of a device. The vocabulary paired with 接收 at B1 includes 公司 (company), 难民 (refugee), 任务 (task/assignment), and 广播 (broadcast). By the end of B1, learners should feel confident using 接收 in a variety of professional and technical contexts, moving beyond simple daily survival Chinese into more articulate and precise communication.

At the B2 level, learners are achieving a high degree of fluency and are expected to understand and produce complex, nuanced Chinese. The explanation of 接收 (jiē shōu) focuses on refining its usage in highly specific, professional, and academic contexts. B2 learners encounter 接收 in detailed technical manuals, in-depth news analysis, and complex business negotiations. We explore the subtle pragmatics of the word. For instance, when a company '接收's employees from a bankrupt firm, it implies a systemic integration rather than just hiring. We delve into advanced collocations and idiomatic pairings. Learners are taught to use 接收 in complex clauses and compound sentences. We emphasize the use of formal modifiers and formal contexts. The distinction between 接收 and other near-synonyms like 领受 (lǐng shòu) or 容纳 (róng nà) is introduced to sharpen their vocabulary precision. Grammatically, B2 learners practice using 接收 in conditional sentences, hypothetical scenarios, and complex passive structures. We also explore how 接收 is used in metaphorical or extended senses within specific industries, such as '接收指令' (receiving commands) in military or computing contexts. The vocabulary load includes advanced terms like 频率 (frequency), 资产 (assets), 遣返者 (repatriates), and 馈赠 (endowments - though 接受 is better here, 接收 can be used for the physical taking of the assets). At this level, the goal is not just to know what the word means, but to wield it with the exact precision of an educated native speaker, understanding its connotations of formality, objectivity, and systemic capacity.

C1 learners possess an advanced, near-native operational proficiency. The focus on 接收 (jiē shōu) at this level shifts from learning new meanings to mastering its stylistic and rhetorical applications. C1 learners engage with complex literature, academic papers, and high-level professional discourse. We analyze how 接收 is used to establish a formal, objective tone in official documents, legal texts, and scientific reports. The explanation covers the historical evolution of the term and its morphological roots, helping learners understand why it behaves the way it does. We explore highly specialized jargon where 接收 is a component, such as in telecommunications engineering or international law (e.g., 接收国 - receiving state in diplomacy). Grammatically, C1 learners manipulate the word effortlessly across all sentence structures, using it seamlessly in rhetorical questions, inversions, and deeply embedded clauses. We critically analyze texts where 接收 is used alongside its synonyms to create specific stylistic effects or to avoid repetition. The distinction between 接收 and 接受 is no longer a matter of avoiding mistakes, but a tool for precise philosophical or psychological expression. For example, discussing the difference between a society physically '接收'ing immigrants versus psychologically '接受'ing them. The vocabulary paired with 接收 at C1 includes highly abstract or specialized terms like 意识形态 (ideology - usually 接受, but 接收 can be used for the systemic indoctrination process), 频段 (frequency band), 移交 (handover), and 编制 (establishment/system). Mastery at C1 means understanding the absolute limits of the word's semantic field and using it to convey profound, nuanced ideas.

At the C2 level, learners have achieved mastery of the language, functioning at a level equivalent to a highly educated native speaker. The exploration of 接收 (jiē shōu) at this pinnacle is entirely focused on sociolinguistic nuances, literary analysis, and absolute precision in the most demanding contexts. C2 learners do not need to be taught what the word means; they need to analyze how it shapes thought and discourse. We examine the use of 接收 in classical-style modern writings, political treatises, and avant-garde literature. We discuss the subtle power dynamics embedded in the word when used in geopolitical contexts—how '接收' implies a transfer of sovereignty or control that other words do not. We analyze its valency and how it interacts with the most complex syntactic structures in Chinese. C2 learners are challenged to use 接收 in creative, non-standard ways that still adhere to the underlying logic of the language, perhaps in poetry or highly stylized prose. We also look at regional variations or dialectical influences on the usage of the word, though 接收 is fairly standard across Mandarin. The focus is on the meta-linguistic awareness of the word. Why did the author choose 接收 here instead of 纳入 (nà rù) or 收编 (shōu biān)? What does that choice reveal about the author's perspective on the event? The vocabulary paired with 接收 at this level is limitless, encompassing the entirety of the Chinese lexicon. Mastery at C2 means 接收 is not just a tool for communication, but an instrument for profound intellectual and artistic expression, wielded with effortless grace and absolute exactitude.

接收 في 30 ثانية

Technological reception (signals, data).
Administrative takeover (companies, facilities).
Institutional admission (patients, students).
Objective and physical, not psychological.

The Chinese verb 接收 (jiē shōu) is a highly versatile and frequently used compound word that primarily translates to 'to receive', 'to accept', or 'to take over'. To fully grasp its meaning, we must first break down its constituent characters. The first character, 接 (jiē), means to connect, to catch, or to come into contact with. It implies an active reaching out or a physical connection being made. The second character, 收 (shōu), means to gather, to collect, or to harvest. When combined, 接收 conveys the comprehensive action of catching something that is transmitted or handed over, and then gathering it into one's possession or control. This dual nature makes it uniquely suited for a wide variety of contexts, ranging from the physical to the highly abstract.

Technological Reception: In modern contexts, 接收 is most commonly used to describe the reception of signals, data, or broadcasts. Whether it is a radio antenna picking up frequencies, a smartphone receiving a Wi-Fi signal, or a satellite dish capturing transmissions from space, 接收 is the precise verb used to describe this technological phenomenon.

我的手机在这里无法接收到任何信号。

Beyond technology, 接收 plays a crucial role in administrative and organizational contexts. When a company acquires another business, or when a government takes control of a facility, they are said to 接收 it. This implies a formal transfer of power, responsibility, and assets.

Medical Context: In healthcare, hospitals and clinics use 接收 to describe the admission of patients. It indicates that the medical facility has formally accepted the responsibility for the patient's care and treatment.

这家医院昨天接收了五十名新病人。

Furthermore, educational institutions use 接收 when talking about admitting new students or accepting transfer students. It shows an official capacity to accommodate and integrate the new arrivals into their system.

我们学校每年接收数百名国际留学生。

It is also important to distinguish 接收 from similar words like 接受 (jiē shòu). While both involve receiving, 接收 is generally more objective and physical or systemic, whereas 接受 is more subjective, dealing with the psychological acceptance of ideas, apologies, or conditions.

Abstract Usage: Occasionally, 接收 can be used abstractly, such as receiving an education or receiving training, though this is less common than its technological and administrative uses.

他正在接收专业的飞行员训练。

To truly master 接收, one must pay attention to its collocations. Words like 信号 (signal), 数据 (data), 邮件 (email/mail - though 收到 is more common for personal mail, servers 接收 emails), and 难民 (refugees) frequently follow this verb.

天线成功接收到了来自外太空的微弱电波。

In summary, 接收 is a foundational vocabulary word for anyone looking to discuss modern technology, business operations, or institutional administration in Mandarin Chinese. Its objective nature makes it indispensable for clear, precise communication in these fields.

Using 接收 (jiē shōu) correctly requires an understanding of its syntactic behavior and the specific types of objects it can take. As a transitive verb, 接收 almost always requires a direct object. The standard sentence structure follows the typical Subject-Verb-Object (SVO) pattern in Chinese. For example, in the sentence '机器接收信号' (The machine receives the signal), '机器' is the subject, '接收' is the verb, and '信号' is the object.

Basic SVO Structure: The most fundamental way to use 接收 is placing it directly between the receiver and the thing being received. Subject + 接收 + Object.

电脑正在接收更新文件。

When modifying 接收, adverbs are placed immediately before the verb. Common adverbs used with 接收 include 成功地 (successfully), 无法 (unable to), 正在 (currently/in the process of), and 拒绝 (refuse to).

由于天气恶劣，我们无法接收卫星图像。

接收 can also be used in passive constructions using the 被 (bèi) marker, although this is slightly less common than the active voice. In a passive sentence, the object being received becomes the subject.

Passive Voice: Object + 被 + (Subject) + 接收. This emphasizes the thing being received rather than the entity receiving it.

这些难民已经被当地政府妥善接收。

Another important grammatical feature is the use of resultative complements. 接收 is frequently paired with the complement 到 (dào), forming 接收到 (jiē shōu dào). The addition of 到 emphasizes the successful completion or the result of the receiving action. If you are trying to receive a signal but haven't gotten it yet, you are 接收ing. If you have successfully acquired it, you have 接收到ed it.

你接收到我刚才发送的文件了吗？

Resultative Complement 到: Adding 到 transforms the verb from focusing on the process to focusing on the successful outcome. It is essential for past tense or completed actions.

In formal or written Chinese, 接收 can be used as a noun, meaning 'reception' or 'takeover'. For instance, in the phrase '信号的接收' (the reception of the signal), 接收 functions as a noun modified by '信号的'.

这个设备的接收能力非常强。

Understanding these syntactic nuances—whether using it as an active verb, a passive verb, with a resultative complement, or as a noun—will significantly enhance your fluency and accuracy when discussing technical, medical, or administrative topics in Chinese. Practice combining 接收 with different types of objects to build an intuitive feel for its boundaries and applications.

The word 接收 (jiē shōu) is ubiquitous in modern Chinese society, deeply embedded in various professional, technical, and everyday contexts. Because it denotes an objective, often systemic form of receiving, its usage spans across multiple domains that learners will frequently encounter.

Telecommunications and IT: This is arguably the most common context. You will hear 接收 constantly when discussing smartphones, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, television broadcasts, and radio signals.

请检查你的路由器，看看是否能正常接收网络信号。

When setting up a new device, troubleshooting a poor connection, or discussing data transfer rates, 接收 is the go-to vocabulary. IT professionals use it to describe servers receiving data packets, while everyday users use it to complain about bad cell service.

News and Media: In journalism, 接收 is frequently used in reports about corporate mergers, government actions, and international relations.

这家大型企业正式接收了那家破产的小公司。

When a country agrees to take in refugees, the news will report that the nation has decided to 接收难民. When a new political administration takes over government buildings, they 接收 those facilities. This gives the word a formal, official tone that is essential for reading Chinese newspapers or watching news broadcasts.

邻国表示愿意接收更多因战争流离失所的平民。

Healthcare and Education: Institutional environments use 接收 to denote the formal admission of individuals into their care or programs.

由于床位已满，急诊室暂时停止接收新的病患。

In hospitals, you will hear doctors and nurses discussing whether a ward can 接收 more patients. In universities, admissions offices talk about 接收 applications or 接收 transfer students. Finally, in the realm of logistics and supply chain management, 接收 is used to describe the formal receipt of goods at a warehouse or distribution center.

仓库管理员正在核对清单，准备接收这批新到的货物。

While an individual might use 收到 for a personal package, a business uses 接收 for a shipment, underscoring the formal, procedural nature of the word. By familiarizing yourself with these specific contexts, you can accurately predict when to use 接收 and when to opt for a different synonym.

For learners of Chinese, the concept of 'receiving' is a notorious minefield because English uses one word ('receive' or 'accept') where Chinese uses several highly specific verbs. The most frequent and glaring mistakes involving 接收 (jiē shōu) stem from confusing it with its close cousins: 接受 (jiē shòu), 收到 (shōu dào), and 受到 (shòu dào). Understanding the precise boundaries of 接收 is critical to avoiding these errors.

Mistake 1: Confusing 接收 with 接受: This is the number one error. Learners often use 接收 when they mean to subjectively accept an apology, a gift, an idea, or a condition. 接收 is objective and physical/systemic; 接受 is subjective and psychological.

Incorrect: 我不能接收你的道歉。
Correct: 我不能接受你的道歉。

You cannot '接收' an apology because an apology is not a physical signal, a patient, or a facility to be taken over. It requires psychological acceptance, hence 接受 is required.

Mistake 2: Confusing 接收 with 收到: Learners frequently use 接收 when talking about receiving personal mail, packages, or simple text messages. While a phone '接收's a signal, a person '收到's a letter.

Incorrect: 昨天我接收到了朋友的生日礼物。
Correct: 昨天我收到了朋友的生日礼物。

收到 simply means the action of receiving has been completed and the item is in your possession. 接收 implies a more formal, systemic, or technological process.

Incorrect: 你接收我的微信了吗？
Correct: 你收到我的微信了吗？

Mistake 3: Confusing 接收 with 受到: 受到 is used for receiving abstract, often passive influences, such as receiving praise, criticism, or impact. 接收 cannot be used for these abstract influences.

Incorrect: 这部电影接收了很多好评。
Correct: 这部电影受到了很多好评。

Correct usage: 我们的雷达系统正在接收敌方的通讯。

By strictly categorizing 接收 as the 'technological/administrative receive', learners can effectively eliminate the vast majority of errors associated with this complex semantic field.

The Chinese language is rich with verbs that describe the act of receiving, accepting, or bearing. To master 接收 (jiē shōu), it is highly beneficial to compare it directly with its synonyms and related terms. This comparative analysis highlights the unique semantic space that 接收 occupies.

接收 vs. 接受 (jiē shòu): As discussed, this is the most critical distinction. 接收 is objective, systemic, and physical (signals, facilities, patients). 接受 is subjective, psychological, and abstract (apologies, ideas, conditions, gifts). You 接收 a radio broadcast, but you 接受 a friend's advice.

他接收了那家工厂，并且接受了工人们的建议。

接收 vs. 收到 (shōu dào): 收到 focuses purely on the result of getting something into your possession, usually a physical object like a letter, a package, or a text message. 接收 focuses on the process and capacity of a system to catch and gather data or entities.

我的手机接收信号不好，所以我没收到你的短信。

接收 vs. 受到 (shòu dào): 受到 is a passive marker used for abstract nouns like influence (影响), praise (表扬), or restriction (限制). It translates closer to 'to suffer' or 'to be subjected to'. 接收 is active and involves taking in something tangible or data-based.

这个天线在接收信号时，受到了强烈的电磁干扰。

Another related word is 领受 (lǐng shòu), which is highly formal and literary, meaning to accept or receive something bestowed upon you, like a task, a blessing, or an honor. It has a hierarchical implication (from higher to lower) that 接收 lacks.

相比于领受长辈的恩惠，这台机器接收数据显得非常机械。

Finally, 承受 (chéng shòu) means to bear, endure, or support (weight, pressure, stress). While it shares the character 受, its meaning is entirely different from 接收. You 承受 pressure, but you 接收 a radio wave.

这座桥能承受巨大的重量，而那个雷达能接收极远的信号。

By mapping out these distinctions, learners can navigate the complex web of Chinese 'receiving' verbs with confidence and precision.
