At the A1 level, you don't need to use '修改' (xiūgǎi) very often, but you might see it on your phone or computer. Think of it as the 'Edit' button. If you have a profile on a website and you want to change your name or your picture, you click a button that says '修改'. It is a formal way of saying 'change' for information. At this stage, just remember that if you see '修改', it means you can change the text or information you are looking at. You can also think of it as 'fixing' a small mistake in your writing. For example, if you write 'I are' and your teacher says 'Change it to I am', that action is a type of '修改'. It's about making small changes to words or numbers.
By A2, you should start using '修改' (xiūgǎi) when talking about your homework or your plans. If you write a paragraph in Chinese and then find a mistake, you can say '我要修改一下' (Wǒ yào xiūgǎi yīxià) - 'I need to revise/modify it a bit'. It is different from '修理' (xiūlǐ), which is for fixing a broken bike or phone. '修改' is for things on paper or on a screen. You will also see it when you change your password: '修改密码' (xiūgǎi mìmǎ). It's a very useful word for the digital world. When you and your friends make a plan to go to the park, but then it rains, you might need to '修改计划' (xiūgǎi jìhuà) - 'modify the plan'.
At the B1 level, '修改' (xiūgǎi) becomes a key professional and academic word. You are expected to use it when discussing the process of writing essays, preparing presentations, or working on business documents. It implies a process of refinement. For example, '修改稿' (xiūgǎi gǎo) refers to a revised draft. You should understand that '修改' is used for texts, laws, plans, and digital data. It is often used with the particle '了' (le) to show that a revision has been completed: '我已经修改了我的报告' (I have already revised my report). You should also be able to distinguish it from '改变' (gǎibiàn), which is a broader term for 'change'. '修改' is more precise for 'editing' or 'amending'.
At the B2 level, you should be comfortable using '修改' (xiūgǎi) in more complex sentence structures, such as '对...进行修改' (to carry out modifications on...). This is very common in business and formal writing. You should also know common collocations like '修改意见' (suggestions for revision) and '大幅度修改' (to modify extensively). At this level, you might encounter '修改' in the context of law or policy, such as '修改宪法' (amending the constitution). You should understand the nuance that '修改' suggests the core structure remains, but specific details are being improved or updated. It is a word that shows you are thinking about the quality and accuracy of information.
For C1 learners, '修改' (xiūgǎi) is part of a sophisticated vocabulary regarding the iterative process of creation and governance. You should be able to discuss the nuances between '修改', '修正' (xiūzhèng), and '校订' (jiàodìng - to proofread and edit). In a literary or academic context, you might discuss how an author '反复修改' (repeatedly revised) a manuscript to achieve perfection. You will see this word in high-level legal discussions where the wording of a clause is '修改' to avoid ambiguity. At this level, your use of '修改' should be precise, reflecting an understanding of the formal register it belongs to and the specific types of objects (abstract plans, legal texts, literary works) it typically governs.
At the C2 level, '修改' (xiūgǎi) is understood within the broadest historical and philosophical contexts. You might analyze how the '修改' of historical records affects modern perception, or how the '修改' of a scientific theory reflects a paradigm shift. You should be able to use the word with absolute precision in any professional setting, from international diplomacy to high-level software engineering. You understand the subtle implications of using '修改' versus more radical terms like '变革' (biàngé) or '颠覆' (diānfù). In C2 level writing, '修改' is not just a verb, but a concept representing the continuous improvement and adaptation of human knowledge, laws, and systems.

修改 en 30 segundos

  • 修改 (xiūgǎi) means to edit, revise, or modify existing content like texts, plans, or laws.
  • It is a B1 level word used extensively in professional, academic, and digital settings.
  • It differs from '修理' (fixing physical objects) and '改变' (general change of state or mind).
  • Common collocations include modifying passwords, reports, contracts, and legal documents.

The Chinese word 修改 (xiūgǎi) is a fundamental verb in the intermediate Chinese lexicon, specifically categorized under the CEFR B1 level. At its core, it represents the act of altering, revising, or amending something that already exists. Unlike words that imply a total transformation or a radical change, 修改 typically refers to the refinement of a draft, the adjustment of a plan, or the amendment of a legal document. It is the bridge between a first draft and a final product. In daily life, you will encounter this word in professional settings, academic environments, and even in software interfaces where 'Edit' or 'Modify' is translated as 修改.

Core Concept: Refinement
The essence of 修改 lies in the prefix 修 (xiū), which means to repair or decorate, and the suffix 改 (gǎi), which means to change. Together, they suggest a purposeful change aimed at improvement or correction.
Professional Contexts
In an office, you might 修改报告 (xiūgǎi bàogào)—modify a report. In a legal setting, the government might 修改法律 (xiūgǎi fǎlǜ)—amend a law. In software development, users 修改密码 (xiūgǎi mìmǎ)—change their passwords.

老师建议我再修改一下这篇文章的结尾。(The teacher suggested that I revise the ending of this article once more.)

Furthermore, 修改 is used when the scope of change is controlled. If you were to completely overhaul a system, you might use 改革 (gǎigé) or 改造 (gǎizào). However, if you are tweaking the parameters of a contract or fixing typos in a manuscript, 修改 is the precise term. It implies that the foundational structure remains the same, but the details are being optimized. This distinction is crucial for B1 learners to master, as using a word like 改变 (gǎibiàn)—which is a general word for 'change'—might sound too vague in professional or academic writing.

这个计划需要根据实际情况进行修改。(This plan needs to be modified according to the actual situation.)

Common Objects of 修改
  • 修改稿 (xiūgǎi gǎo): A revised draft.
  • 修改意见 (xiūgǎi yìjiàn): Suggestions for revision.
  • 修改合同 (xiūgǎi hétóng): To modify a contract.

Using 修改 (xiūgǎi) correctly involves understanding its grammatical role as a transitive verb. Most commonly, it follows the pattern [Subject] + [修改] + [Object]. The object is almost always a noun representing something that can be edited, adjusted, or refined. However, it can also appear in passive constructions using 被 (bèi) or in formal structures using 对...进行修改.

Pattern 1: Direct Action
This is the most straightforward usage.
我修改了作文。(Wǒ xiūgǎile zuòwén.) - I revised the essay.
Pattern 2: Formal 'Conduct' Structure
In formal reports or news, you often see 对...进行修改.
委员会对提案进行了修改。(Wěiyuánhuì duì tí'àn jìnxíngle xiūgǎi.) - The committee carried out modifications to the proposal.

如果你发现错误,请随时修改。(If you find an error, please modify it at any time.)

When modifying something, you might want to specify how it was modified. In Chinese, you can use adverbs before 修改 or resultative complements after it. For example, 大幅度修改 (dà fúdù xiūgǎi) means 'to modify extensively,' while 修改好了 (xiūgǎi hǎo le) means 'finished modifying/revising.'

这篇文章经过多次修改后,终于发表了。(After being revised many times, this article was finally published.)

Pattern 3: Passive Voice
Using 被 (bèi) to emphasize the object being modified.
合同被修改了三次。(Hétóng bèi xiūgǎile sān cì.) - The contract was modified three times.

The word 修改 (xiūgǎi) is ubiquitous in modern Chinese life, particularly in environments where information is processed, shared, and refined. Understanding the specific contexts where it appears will help you recognize it instantly in the wild.

1. The Digital World
On any Chinese website or app, look for the word 修改 in settings.
- 修改资料 (xiūgǎi zīliào): Edit profile/info.
- 修改密码 (xiūgǎi mìmǎ): Change password.
- 修改订单 (xiūgǎi dìngdān): Modify an order (e.g., on Meituan or Taobao).
2. Academic & Educational Settings
Teachers use this word constantly when giving feedback.
- 修改作业 (xiūgǎi zuòyè): To correct or revise homework.
- 修改论文 (xiūgǎi lùnwén): To revise a thesis.

在提交之前,你一定要仔细修改拼写错误。(Before submitting, you must carefully correct the spelling errors.)

In the business world, 修改 is part of the daily grind. During meetings, someone might say, “这个方案还需要修改” (This proposal still needs revision). It implies that the core idea is accepted, but the execution or details need work. It is a collaborative word, often used when negotiating terms or perfecting a strategy.

客户要求我们修改设计图纸。(The client requested us to modify the design drawings.)

While 修改 (xiūgǎi) is a versatile word, learners often confuse it with other 'change' verbs. Misusing it can lead to confusion about whether you are fixing something, improving something, or changing its nature entirely.

Mistake 1: 修改 vs. 改变 (gǎibiàn)
改变 is a general word for 'change' (e.g., changing weather, changing your mind). 修改 is specific to editing or amending a document or plan.
不要修改你的主意。(Don't modify your idea - sounds awkward.)
不要改变你的主意。(Don't change your mind.)
Mistake 2: 修改 vs. 修理 (xiūlǐ)
修理 is for physical repairs (fixing a car, a watch). 修改 is for non-physical revisions.
我的自行车坏了,我要修改它。(I need to 'modify' my broken bike.)
我的自行车坏了,我要修理它。(I need to repair my bike.)

错误:他修改了他的生活方式。(He modified his lifestyle.)
正确:他改变了他的生活方式。(He changed his lifestyle.)

Another common error is using 修改 without an object in contexts where one is expected. Since it is a transitive verb, it usually needs to 'act' on something. If you just want to say 'to change,' use 变化 (biànhuà) or 改变 (gǎibiàn).

To truly master 修改 (xiūgǎi), you must understand its position within the family of 'change' and 'repair' words in Chinese. Here is a comparison with its closest synonyms.

1. 修正 (xiūzhèng)
Comparison: 修正 is more formal and often implies correcting a deviation from a standard or a truth. It is used for data, orbits, or ideological positions.
修改 is more general for any revision of a draft or plan.
2. 更改 (gēnggǎi)
Comparison: 更改 focuses on 'replacing' or 'swapping' one thing for another, like a date, a name, or a route.
修改 implies 'polishing' or 'adjusting' the existing content.
3. 改进 (gǎijìn)
Comparison: 改进 means 'to improve' or 'to make better' in terms of quality, performance, or efficiency.
修改 is more neutral—it just means to change the text or plan, though the goal is usually improvement.

我们需要修改(revise)合同的内容,并改进(improve)我们的服务流程。(We need to revise the contract content and improve our service processes.)

In summary, choose 修改 when you are holding a pen or sitting at a computer, looking at a draft that needs some tweaks. Choose 修正 when you are correcting a precise error. Choose 更改 when you are changing a fixed detail like a deadline.

How Formal Is It?

Dato curioso

The character '改' (gǎi) originally had a much harsher connotation of 'correcting' someone through force, but today it is a very neutral and common word for any kind of change.

Guía de pronunciación

UK xiū gǎi
US xiū gǎi
The stress is balanced between the two syllables, but 'gai' often feels more emphatic as the result of the action.
Rima con
优 (yōu) 休 (xiū) 海 (hǎi) 买 (mǎi) 开 (kāi) 才 (cái) 白 (bái) 来 (lái)
Errores comunes
  • Pronouncing 'xiu' as 'zoo'.
  • Pronouncing 'gai' as 'gay'.
  • Missing the tone change (sandhi) if 'gai' is followed by another 3rd tone.
  • Confusing the 1st tone of 'xiu' with the 2nd tone.
  • Mispronouncing the 'x' as a hard 'sh' like in English 'shoe'.
