- Similar to 'for example' or 'let's say' in English.
- Used to clarify or illustrate a point.
- Common in both spoken and written Chinese.
'譬如说' (pìrú shuō) is a common Chinese phrase that translates to 'for instance,' 'for example,' or 'let's say.' It serves as a way to introduce an example or a hypothetical situation to illustrate a point or clarify an idea. You'll encounter this phrase frequently in both spoken and written Chinese, especially when someone wants to provide concrete evidence or a relatable scenario to support their argument or explanation.
- Literal Meaning
- '譬如' means 'for example' or 'like,' and '说' means 'to say.' So, literally, it's like saying 'for example, to say...' or 'like saying...'
- Usage Contexts
- It's used to introduce explanations, clarify abstract concepts, provide evidence, or even to pose a hypothetical question. It's a versatile phrase that adds clarity and depth to communication.
我们应该多吃蔬菜,譬如说,菠菜和胡萝卜对身体很有好处。
When you're learning a new concept in Chinese, try to think of real-world examples that fit the description. Using '譬如说' in your own sentences will help solidify your understanding and make your communication more effective. It's a phrase that makes your speech or writing more engaging and easier to follow. Imagine you're telling a story and you want to paint a vivid picture for your audience; '譬如说' is the tool you'd use to introduce specific details that make the story come alive. It's also useful when you want to soften a statement or offer a suggestion without being too direct. For example, instead of saying 'You must do this,' you might say 'You could consider doing this,譬如说, trying option A first.'

- Structure
- '譬如说' is typically placed at the beginning of a clause or sentence that introduces the example. It can also appear after a general statement.
他有很多爱好,譬如说,他喜欢画画、弹钢琴和摄影。
Using '譬如说' effectively involves understanding its role in structuring arguments and explanations. It acts as a signpost, guiding your listener or reader through your thought process. Typically, you would present a general idea or statement first, and then follow it with '譬如说' to introduce one or more specific examples that support or clarify that idea. This makes your communication more concrete and easier to grasp.
- Introducing Examples
- The most common usage is to introduce specific instances that exemplify a broader point. For example, if you're discussing the benefits of exercise, you might say: '运动对健康有很多好处,譬如说,它可以增强心肺功能,帮助控制体重,还能改善情绪。' (Exercise has many benefits for health; for instance, it can strengthen cardiovascular function, help control weight, and also improve mood.)
- Clarifying Concepts
- When explaining an abstract or complex idea, '譬如说' can be used to provide a tangible example. For instance, explaining the concept of 'opportunity cost': '经济学里有一个概念叫机会成本,譬如说,你选择花时间学习汉语,你就放弃了用这段时间做其他事情的机会。' (There's a concept in economics called opportunity cost; for example, if you choose to spend time learning Chinese, you give up the opportunity to do other things with that time.)
- Hypothetical Scenarios
- It can also be used to introduce a hypothetical situation to make a point. For example: '如果我们不提前做好计划,譬如说,旅行途中遇到交通堵塞,就会很麻烦。' (If we don't plan ahead, for example, if we encounter traffic jams during the trip, it will be very troublesome.)
为了保持健康,我们应该注意饮食,譬如说,少吃油炸食品,多吃蔬菜水果。
The placement of '譬如说' is usually at the beginning of the clause that contains the example. It connects the example directly to the preceding statement. You can list multiple examples after '譬如说,' often separated by commas or conjunctions like '和' (and).
这个城市有很多历史遗迹,譬如说,古老的城墙、寺庙和博物馆。
- Flexibility in Sentence Structure
- While it often introduces an example, '譬如说' can sometimes be used to introduce a hypothetical situation or a suggestion, making it quite versatile. For instance, '如果你觉得累了,譬如说,可以先休息一下再继续工作。' (If you feel tired, for example, you can rest for a while before continuing to work.)
学习一门新语言需要耐心和毅力,譬如说,遇到困难时不要轻易放弃。
You'll hear '譬如说' in a wide variety of everyday conversations and more formal settings in Chinese-speaking communities. It's a phrase that adds a natural flow to speech, making explanations clearer and more relatable. Pay attention to how native speakers use it, as it often comes up when they are trying to illustrate a point, share a personal experience, or explain a concept.
- In Casual Conversations
- Friends discussing plans, family members sharing advice, or colleagues chatting about daily life – '譬如说' is a common interjection. For example, someone might say, '我最近在学做饭,譬如说,昨天我试着做了宫保鸡丁,味道还不错。' (I've been learning to cook recently; for instance, yesterday I tried making Kung Pao chicken, and it tasted quite good.)
- In Educational Settings
- Teachers explaining new concepts in classrooms, university lecturers delivering talks, or language instructors demonstrating grammar points often use '譬如说' to provide examples. '语法有很多规则,譬如说,动词的时态变化,名词的复数形式等等。' (There are many grammar rules; for example, verb tense changes, noun plural forms, and so on.)
- In Media and Presentations
- News anchors, documentary narrators, and speakers at conferences will use '譬如说' to make their content more accessible. Imagine a presentation about environmental issues: '我们需要采取措施保护环境,譬如说,减少使用一次性塑料制品,推广可再生能源。' (We need to take measures to protect the environment; for example, reduce the use of single-use plastic products and promote renewable energy.)
这个城市有很多值得参观的地方,譬如说,故宫博物院,长城,还有颐和园。
It's also common in public service announcements, advertisements, and even in literature. Essentially, any situation where clarity and illustration are needed is a prime place to encounter '譬如说.' When you hear it, anticipate an example that will help you understand the preceding statement better. This phrase is a cornerstone of clear and effective communication in Chinese.
我们应该养成良好的生活习惯,譬如说,早睡早起,均衡饮食,坚持锻炼。
- In Online Content
- Blogs, vlogs, and online tutorials often use '譬如说' to explain how to do something or to give recommendations. For instance, a travel blogger might say, '去北京旅游,有很多交通方式可以选择,譬如说,你可以坐地铁,也可以打车。' (When traveling to Beijing, there are many transportation options to choose from; for example, you can take the subway, or you can take a taxi.)
学习任何技能都需要时间和练习,譬如说,学钢琴需要每天练习。
While '譬如说' is a very useful phrase, learners sometimes make mistakes in its usage, often related to placement, redundancy, or choosing it when a simpler alternative would suffice. Being aware of these common pitfalls can help you use the phrase more accurately and naturally.
- Redundant Usage
- Sometimes learners might use '譬如说' immediately after another word that already means 'for example' or 'like,' leading to redundancy. For instance, saying '例如,譬如说...' (For example, for instance...) is unnecessary. Stick to one or the other.
- Incorrect Placement
- '譬如说' typically introduces an example. Placing it in the middle of a statement without a clear preceding general idea can sound awkward. It should logically follow a statement that needs illustration. For example, instead of '我譬如说喜欢吃苹果' (I for instance like to eat apples), it should be '我喜欢吃水果,譬如说,苹果。' (I like to eat fruit; for example, apples.)
- Overuse in Simple Sentences
- While '譬如说' is versatile, it's not always necessary. For very simple, direct statements, using it can make the sentence sound more complicated than it needs to be. For instance, if you're just listing items, you might not need '譬如说.' If you're saying 'I like apples,' you don't need '我喜欢吃水果,譬如说,苹果。' unless you're contrasting it with other fruits or emphasizing it as an example of your preference.
Mistake: 他有很多爱好,譬如说,他喜欢看书,譬如说,他喜欢听音乐。
Another common error is misinterpreting its function as a general connector. '譬如说' specifically introduces examples. If you're trying to connect two independent clauses or show a cause-and-effect relationship, other conjunctions would be more appropriate.
Mistake: 我想去旅游,譬如说,我需要存钱。
- Confusing with Other Connectors
- Learners might confuse '譬如说' with words like '所以' (therefore), '因为' (because), or '但是' (but). '譬如说' is about providing instances, not about logical consequence, reason, or contrast.
Mistake: 他很聪明,譬如说,他总是能解决问题。
While '譬如说' is a widely used and effective phrase for introducing examples, Chinese offers several alternatives, each with subtle differences in nuance, formality, and common usage. Understanding these alternatives will enrich your vocabulary and allow you to choose the most appropriate word for any given situation.
- 例如 (lìrú)
- This is perhaps the most direct and common synonym for '譬如说.' '例如' is generally considered slightly more formal than '譬如说' and is very frequently used in written Chinese, as well as in formal spoken contexts.
Comparison: Both '譬如说' and '例如' mean 'for example.' '例如' is often preferred in academic writing and formal speeches, while '譬如说' can feel a bit more conversational. However, they are largely interchangeable in many contexts.
Example: '有很多方法可以减肥,例如,控制饮食和增加运动。' (There are many ways to lose weight; for example, controlling diet and increasing exercise.) - 比如 (bǐrú)
- '比如' is another very common alternative, often used interchangeably with '譬如说' and '例如.' It's generally considered informal to neutral in tone and is widely used in spoken Chinese.
Comparison: '比如' is very similar to '譬如说' in terms of its conversational tone. It's slightly more concise than '譬如说' as it omits the '说' (to say).
Example: '我喜欢吃水果,比如苹果、香蕉和橘子。' (I like to eat fruit, such as apples, bananas, and oranges.) - 就说 (jiù shuō)
- This phrase is used to introduce a specific example, often in a more emphatic or direct way. It's more common in spoken language and can sometimes imply 'to take for example' or 'let's just say.'
Comparison: '就说' is less about introducing a general example and more about highlighting a specific instance to make a point. It often implies a direct illustration.
Example: '你看看他,就说他今天迟到了。' (Look at him; just take him as an example, he was late today.) This implies that his lateness is a clear illustration of a point being made.
Comparison Table:
Phrase Formality Common Usage 譬如说 (pìrú shuō) Neutral to Informal Spoken and written, conversational 例如 (lìrú) Neutral to Formal Written, formal spoken 比如 (bǐrú) Informal to Neutral Spoken, very common 就说 (jiù shuō) Informal Spoken, emphatic illustration
Choosing the right word depends on the context and the desired tone. For instance, if you are writing an academic paper, '例如' would be the most appropriate choice. If you are chatting with friends, '比如' or '譬如说' would sound more natural. '就说' is best reserved for situations where you want to highlight a specific instance as a prime example.
Alternative Example using 比如:
我有很多运动爱好,比如跑步、游泳和打篮球。
How Formal Is It?
豆知識
The character '譬' (pì) itself is composed of '口' (mouth) and '辟' (to open, to explain), suggesting the act of speaking or explaining something by comparison. The character '如' (rú) often conveys a sense of similarity or resemblance.

Both phrases are used to introduce examples, and '就说' can sometimes be a very direct way of saying 'for example'.
'就说' often implies a more direct or emphatic illustration, almost like 'take this specific instance as proof.' It's more colloquial and can be used to highlight a particular case. '譬如说' is a more general introducer of examples or hypothetical situations.
For '譬如说': 他很努力,譬如说,他每天都学习到很晚。 For '就说': 你看看他,就说他今天又迟到了,这怎么能行?
Both phrases introduce examples or comparisons.
'打个比方' literally means 'to make an analogy' or 'to draw a comparison.' It's more conversational and often used when trying to explain something complex by relating it to something simpler or more familiar. '譬如说' is a more straightforward introduction of an example.
For '譬如说': 学习需要毅力,譬如说,每天练习。 For '打个比方': 学习汉语就像爬山一样,打个比方,需要一步一步来。
Both are used to introduce examples or lists.
'诸如' is a more formal, literary, and often written term. It's typically used to introduce a list of items or examples that are representative of a larger category. '譬如说' is more versatile and common in spoken contexts.
For '譬如说': 很多城市都有历史遗迹,譬如说,北京的故宫。 For '诸如': 许多国家都面临挑战,诸如气候变化、经济波动等。

ヒント
Connect General to Specific
Always think of '譬如说' as a bridge. It connects a general statement or idea to a specific, concrete example that helps the listener or reader understand it better. Ensure there's a clear general point before you introduce your example.
Aspirated 'P' and 'Shuo' Sound
Pay attention to the aspirated 'p' (pì) at the beginning, similar to the 'p' in 'pin.' Also, practice the 'shuo' sound, which is distinct and common in Mandarin. Listening to native speakers will help you perfect these sounds.
Create Your Own Examples
When you learn a new concept, try to think of your own examples and practice using '譬如说' to introduce them. This active learning method will significantly improve your retention and fluency.
Listen to Native Speakers
Pay close attention to how native Chinese speakers use '譬如说' in movies, dramas, podcasts, and conversations. Note the context, the examples they provide, and the overall tone.
Avoid Redundancy
Be careful not to use '譬如说' immediately after another phrase that means 'for example,' such as '例如' or '比如.' This creates redundancy and sounds unnatural. Stick to one.
Know Your Synonyms
While '譬如说' is versatile, familiarize yourself with '例如' (more formal) and '比如' (more informal/conversational). Choosing the right synonym will enhance the nuance and appropriateness of your language.
Sentence Construction Practice
Write sentences using '譬如说' in various contexts: explaining a hobby, describing a problem, giving advice, or discussing a hypothetical situation. The more you practice, the more natural it will become.
Anticipate Examples
When you hear or read '譬如说,' train yourself to expect an example. This predictive listening/reading skill will improve your comprehension speed and accuracy.
Clarity is Key
In Chinese communication, clarity is highly valued. Using '譬如说' effectively shows you are making an effort to be clear and thorough, which is appreciated.
Illustrating Nuances
Beyond simple examples, '譬如说' can also be used to illustrate subtle differences, exceptions, or nuanced aspects of a topic. This is a sign of more advanced language proficiency.
暗記しよう
記憶術
Imagine you're telling a story. You say, 'I love fruits.' Then you pause and say, '譬 (Pi) 如 (ru) 说 (shuo)...' and you might point to an apple and say 'apple!' The sound 'pi-ru-shuo' sounds a bit like 'pee-ru-sure' – 'Are you sure you want an apple? Yes, I'm sure!' It's a stretch, but the idea is to introduce a specific example.
視覚的連想
Picture a person holding up an apple as an example while explaining something. The apple is the 'example' being 'said'. You can also visualize the characters: '口' (mouth) in '譬' implies speaking, '如' (like) implies comparison, and '说' (speak) reinforces the idea of giving an example out loud.
Word Web
チャレンジ
Try to explain a complex concept you know well (e.g., your hobby, a scientific principle) to someone who knows nothing about it, using '譬如说' at least three times to provide concrete examples. This will force you to actively think about how to illustrate your points.
語源
'譬如说' is a compound phrase. '譬如' itself has roots in classical Chinese, meaning 'like' or 'for example.' The addition of '说' (to say) makes it a more explicit instruction to provide an example.
元の意味: The original meaning of '譬如' is to compare something to something else, or to present something as an example. '说' simply adds the action of speaking or stating.
Sino-Tibetan languages文化的な背景
The phrase itself is neutral and does not carry any sensitive connotations. Its usage is purely functional for providing examples. However, the examples provided should be culturally appropriate and respectful.
In English, we have several similar phrases like 'for example,' 'for instance,' 'such as,' and 'let's say.' The choice often depends on formality and the specific context.

よくある質問
10 問'譬如说' and '比如' are generally more conversational and common in spoken Chinese, with '比如' often being slightly more informal. '例如' is typically more formal and frequently used in writing and academic contexts. However, in many everyday situations, they are interchangeable.
Yes, '譬如说' can be used to introduce hypothetical situations. For example, '如果我们不提前计划,譬如说,路上堵车,就会很麻烦。' (If we don't plan ahead, for example, if there's traffic, it will be very troublesome.)
Yes, '譬如说' can often be used at the beginning of a clause or sentence to introduce an example that follows a general statement. For instance: '有很多健康食品,譬如说,蔬菜和水果对身体很好。'
Yes, you can list multiple examples after '譬如说.' They are usually separated by commas or conjunctions like '和' (and). For example: '他有很多爱好,譬如说,看书、听音乐和画画。'
'譬如说' is generally considered neutral to informal. It's very common in spoken Chinese and can be used in many everyday written contexts. For more formal situations, '例如' might be preferred.
Literally, '譬如' means 'like' or 'for example,' and '说' means 'to say.' So, it's like saying 'for example, to say...' or 'like saying...'
It's best to use '譬如说' when you are providing an example to clarify or illustrate a point. If you are simply stating a fact without needing further illustration, it might not be necessary and could make the sentence sound a bit redundant.
Common mistakes include using it redundantly (e.g., '例如,譬如说...'), placing it incorrectly in a sentence, or overusing it when a simpler statement would suffice. Also, confusing it with words that indicate consequence (like '所以') is a mistake.
Consider the context. '比如' is very common in casual speech. '譬如说' is also common and slightly more explanatory. '例如' is best for formal writing and speeches. When in doubt, '比如' and '例如' are generally safe bets.
Yes, absolutely. It's very effective for introducing a single, clear example to support a statement. For instance: '我们需要注意健康,譬如说,每天要保证八小时的睡眠。'
