When talking about businesses, 集团 (jí tuán) refers to a large-scale enterprise or a conglomerate, often made up of several smaller companies. Think of it like a 'group' of companies working together under one large umbrella organization. This word is commonly used to describe big corporations or business groups, especially in formal business contexts.
§ What 集团 Means
Let's break down the Chinese word 集团 (jítuán). You'll see this word a lot, especially when talking about businesses and organizations. It’s pretty common, so it’s good to get familiar with it.
- DEFINITION
- Group; conglomerate; corporation. Think of it as a large collection of companies or entities operating under one umbrella. It’s often used for big businesses or collections of organizations.
§ Where You'll Hear 集团
You'll encounter 集团 in a few key contexts. It’s particularly common in business news, company discussions, and sometimes even in the context of schools or organizations that have multiple branches or affiliations.
- Work/Business: This is probably the most frequent place you'll hear 集团. When you're talking about large companies, especially those with many subsidiaries, 集团 is the word.
- News: Financial news, business reports, and economic discussions frequently use 集团 to refer to major corporations and their activities.
- Larger Organizations: Sometimes, though less often, it can refer to large non-business groups or organizations that have a corporate-like structure.
§ Practical Examples of 集团 in Use
Let's look at some examples to help you understand how to use 集团 naturally.

While '集团' can refer to a general group, its common usage today, especially in a business context, strongly implies a large-scale organization or corporation, similar to how 'group' in English can mean a small gathering but 'a group of companies' refers to a conglomerate.

Leicht verwechselbar
Often confused with other words like '公司 (gōngsī)' (company) or '组织 (zǔzhī)' (organization). While all refer to a collective, '集团' implies a larger, more structured entity, often consisting of multiple companies.
'集团' typically refers to a large-scale enterprise or a number of independent companies acting as a single body. '公司' is a general term for any company. '组织' is a broader term for any organized body.
这家跨国集团在全球拥有数百家子公司。 (Zhè jiā kuàguó jítuán zài quánqiú yǒngyǒu shùbǎi jiā zǐgōngsī.) This multinational *group* has hundreds of subsidiaries worldwide.
Sometimes learners might over-apply '公司' when '集团' is more appropriate for a large, multi-faceted entity.
'公司' is the most common and general term for a company or corporation. '集团' is a specific type of large, often diversified company or a collection of companies.
我在一家科技公司工作。 (Wǒ zài yī jiā kējì gōngsī gōngzuò.) I work at a technology *company*.
Similar to '公司', but '企业' can be a broader term encompassing various types of economic organizations, not just strictly corporations.
'企业' can refer to any enterprise, business, or firm. It's often used in a more economic or industrial context. '公司' specifically means a legally registered company. '集团' is a large-scale business entity.
这家企业是当地最大的雇主。 (Zhè jiā qǐyè shì dāngdì zuì dà de gùzhǔ.) This *enterprise* is the largest employer in the area.
Can be confused because a '集团' is also an '组织', but '组织' is much broader and doesn't necessarily imply a business context.
'组织' means organization, and can refer to any structured body, including non-profits, government agencies, or even informal groups. '集团' specifically refers to a large business or corporate group.
联合国是一个国际组织。 (Liánhéguó shì yī gè guójì zǔzhī.) The United Nations is an international *organization*.
Similar to '组织' and '集团' in that it refers to a group, but usually implies a smaller, more informal or social group.
'团体' generally means a group, body, or team, often with a shared purpose, but typically smaller and less formal than a '集团' or even some '组织'. It's more about people forming a group.
我们学校有一个读书团体。 (Wǒmen xuéxiào yǒu yī gè dúshū tuántǐ.) Our school has a reading *group*.
So verwendest du es
集团 (jítuán) is a formal term used to refer to a large business organization comprising several smaller companies or divisions. It's often translated as 'group,' 'conglomerate,' or 'corporation.' You'll typically see this word in business contexts, news reports, or official company names.
A common mistake is using 集团 interchangeably with simply 'company' (公司, gōngsī) or 'team' (团队, tuánduì). While a 集团 is a type of company, it specifically denotes a very large, often diversified entity. A small or medium-sized business is usually just a 公司. Similarly, 集团 refers to the entire corporate structure, not just a team within it.
