密码 30秒で
- 密码 (mìmǎ) means password.
- Used for security to access devices and online accounts.
- Essential for protecting personal information.
- Remember to create strong and unique passwords.
The Chinese word 密码 (mìmǎ) directly translates to 'password' in English. It's a fundamental term in our digital lives, referring to a secret code or sequence of characters that you must provide to prove your identity and gain access to protected systems, devices, or online accounts. Think of it as a digital key that only you (or someone you've authorized) should possess.
People use passwords for a vast array of purposes. The most common scenario is logging into your smartphone, tablet, or computer. When you set up a new device, you're often prompted to create a password. Similarly, accessing your email, social media profiles, online banking, or any website that requires an account necessitates entering a password. It's the gatekeeper for your personal data and online presence.
Beyond personal devices and accounts, passwords are also crucial for accessing work systems, secure networks, and even some physical access systems like electronic door locks. The principle remains the same: authentication. The system checks if the password you provide matches the one it has on record. If it does, you're granted access; if not, you're denied entry.
The concept of a password is also extended to other forms of secret codes. For instance, in video games, players might need a 'password' to continue from a certain level. In some contexts, it can even refer to a secret phrase or keyword used in communication to verify someone's identity or to unlock a hidden message. However, in everyday modern usage, it overwhelmingly refers to digital security credentials.
The importance of strong, unique passwords cannot be overstated. Weak or easily guessable passwords are a major security risk. This is why you'll often see advice about creating complex passwords that include a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols, and avoiding personal information that could be easily discovered.
- Usage Contexts
- Logging into phones, computers, email accounts, social media, online banking, work systems, secure Wi-Fi networks, gaming consoles.
- Security Importance
- Essential for protecting personal data, financial information, and online identity from unauthorized access.

Using 密码 (mìmǎ) in a sentence is straightforward, as it functions as a noun. It typically follows verbs related to setting, changing, entering, forgetting, or sharing passwords.
Here are some common sentence structures:
- Verb + 密码
- You can use verbs like 'set' (设置, shèzhì), 'change' (修改, xiūgǎi), 'enter' (输入, shūrù), 'forget' (忘记, wàngjì), 'remember' (记住, jìzhù), or 'share' (分享, fēnxiǎng) directly before 密码.
我需要设置一个复杂的 密码 。 (I need to set a complex password.)
- Subject + Verb + Object + 密码
- In sentences where you're referring to the password of a specific item, you'll often say '[item]的密码' (the password of [item]).
请告诉我你的邮箱 密码 。 (Please tell me your email password.)
- Asking about a Password
- You can ask questions like 'What is the password?' or 'Do you know the password?'
这个门的 密码 是什么？ (What is the password for this door?)
- Security Advice
- Sentences often involve advice about password strength and security.
不要和别人分享你的 密码 。 (Don't share your password with others.)
You'll hear 密码 (mìmǎ) constantly in everyday digital interactions. It's a word that's deeply embedded in our modern communication and technology usage.
In Technology and Device Usage:
The most frequent context is when interacting with electronic devices. When you turn on your phone and it asks for your passcode, or when you log into your computer, the prompt often involves the concept of a password, even if the word itself isn't explicitly spoken. However, if someone is helping you with a technical issue or setting up a device, they will almost certainly use the word '密码'. For example, a friend might say, "你的手机 密码 是什么？" (What's your phone password?).
In Online Services:
Every time you log into an online service – be it email, social media, banking, shopping, or streaming platforms – you are dealing with passwords. Customer support representatives might ask you to verify your identity by confirming your account password, or you might hear phrases like, "请重新输入您的 密码 。" (Please re-enter your password.)
In Security Discussions:
Discussions about online security, data protection, and preventing identity theft will invariably involve the term 密码. You might hear public service announcements or tech articles emphasizing the importance of strong passwords. For instance, a news report could say, "为了保护您的账户安全，请使用强 密码 。" (To protect your account security, please use a strong password.)
In Gaming and Entertainment:
In video games, especially older ones or those with save features, players might need to enter a password to resume their progress. You might hear gamers discussing game passwords or cheat codes, which are often referred to as a type of 密码.
In Casual Conversation:
Even in casual conversations, people discuss passwords. "我把我的购物网站 密码 忘了，怎么办？" (I forgot my shopping website password, what should I do?) is a common lament.
技术支持人员询问了我的账户 密码 。 (The technical support staff asked for my account password.)
While 密码 (mìmǎ) is a relatively straightforward word, learners might make a few common mistakes, often related to context or oversimplification.
1. Confusing 'mìmǎ' with other types of codes or numbers:
While 码 (mǎ) can mean 'code' or 'number' in general, 密码 specifically refers to a security password. Learners might incorrectly use 密码 when they mean a phone number (电话号码, diànhuà hàomǎ) or a tracking number (运单号, yùndān hào). The '密' (mì - secret) component is key to understanding its specific meaning.
Incorrect: 我的电话是 密码 13800138000. (My phone is password 13800138000.)
Correct: 我的电话号码是 13800138000. (My phone number is 13800138000.)
2. Using it for non-security related codes:
Sometimes, people might use 密码 to refer to any kind of code, like a product code or a discount code. While understandable in a very broad sense, it's more precise to use other terms. For a discount code, you might use 优惠码 (yōuhuì mǎ). For a product code, you might use 产品代码 (chǎnpǐn dàimǎ).
Less precise: 这个优惠券的 密码 是 'SAVE10'. (This coupon's password is 'SAVE10'.)
More precise: 这个优惠券的优惠码是 'SAVE10'. (This coupon's discount code is 'SAVE10'.)
3. Forgetting the 'secret' aspect:
The '密' (mì) in 密码 signifies secrecy. Learners might sometimes use it in situations where the information is not secret, leading to awkward phrasing. For example, stating your public Wi-Fi password as a '密码' is technically correct but might sound redundant if the context implies it's public.
4. Grammatical errors with possessives:
When referring to the password of a specific item, learners might forget to use the possessive particle '的' (de). While sometimes omitted in very informal speech, it's generally better to include it for clarity.
Slightly awkward: 我忘了电脑 密码 。 (I forgot computer password.)
More natural: 我忘了电脑的 密码 。 (I forgot the computer's password.)
While 密码 (mìmǎ) is the standard and most common term for 'password', there are other related terms and alternatives depending on the specific context or nuance.
1. 账户 (zhànghù) - Account:
This refers to the user account itself, not the password. You need a 密码 to access your 账户.
- Comparison
- 密码 (mìmǎ): The secret code.
账户 (zhànghù): The user profile or digital identity.
I need to log into my account using my password. (我需要用我的 密码 登录我的 账户 。)
2. 验证码 (yànzhèngmǎ) - Verification Code:
This is a code sent to you (often via SMS or email) to verify your identity, usually during a login process or for a specific transaction. It's temporary and different from a permanent password.
- Comparison
- 密码 (mìmǎ): Your permanent secret code for access.
验证码 (yànzhèngmǎ): A temporary code for specific verification steps.
Please enter the verification code sent to your phone. (请输入发送到您手机的 验证码 。)
3. 密钥 (mìyào) - Key (Encryption Key):
This term is more technical and refers to a cryptographic key used for encrypting and decrypting data. While related to security, it's not typically used for everyday user passwords.
- Comparison
- 密码 (mìmǎ): User-facing password for authentication.
密钥 (mìyào): Technical cryptographic key for data security.
The software uses a secret key to encrypt the files. (该软件使用一个 密钥 来加密文件。)
4. Other 'mǎ' words (Codes/Numbers):
As mentioned earlier, 码 (mǎ) is a general term for code or number. Depending on the context, you might see:
- 号码 (hàomǎ): Number (e.g., phone number, room number)
- 代码 (dàimǎ): Code (e.g., product code, programming code)
- 优惠码 (yōuhuì mǎ): Discount code
- Contextual Choice
- Choose 密码 for security passwords. Use 验证码 for temporary verification codes. Use 账户 for user accounts. Use 密钥 for technical encryption keys. Use other 'mǎ' words for general numbers or codes.

チャレンジ
Try to explain what a password is to someone using only the words 'secret' and 'code' in English, and then say the Chinese word 密码 (mìmǎ) to represent it.
語源
The term 密码 (mìmǎ) is a modern Chinese compound word formed by combining 密 (mì) and 码 (mǎ). The character 密 (mì) means 'secret' or 'dense', suggesting something hidden or not easily accessible. The character 码 (mǎ) originally referred to a tally stick used for counting, but in modern Chinese, it has evolved to mean 'code', 'number', or 'symbol sequence'. Thus, 密码 literally means 'secret code' or 'secret number'.
元の意味： Secret code/number.
Sino-Tibetan (Chinese)文化的な背景
The term itself is neutral. However, discussions about password security can be sensitive, especially regarding data breaches or the risk of identity theft. It's important to handle discussions about specific passwords with extreme caution.
The term 'password' is universally understood in English-speaking contexts. The Chinese word 密码 directly maps to this concept.

It's used for ongoing authentication. 验证码 (yànzhèngmǎ), or verification code, is a temporary code, usually sent to your phone or email, used for a single instance of verification, like confirming a login or a transaction. You don't choose or remember 验证码 long-term.
Primarily, 密码 refers to digital passwords for computers, phones, and online accounts. However, in a broader sense, it can refer to any secret code used for access or identification, though less commonly. For example, a secret phrase to get into a club might be referred to as a 密码, but more often specific terms like '暗号' (secret signal) or '通行证' (pass) would be used.
You say '修改密码' (xiūgǎi mìmǎ). '修改' (xiūgǎi) means to modify or change, and '密码' (mìmǎ) is password. So, '修改密码' is the standard way to express 'change password'.
A strong 密码 (qiáng mìmǎ) typically includes a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. It should be long enough and not contain easily guessable information like birthdays or common words. In Chinese, you might hear phrases like '使用强密码' (shǐyòng qiáng mìmǎ - use a strong password).
Yes, absolutely. The Wi-Fi password is a type of 密码. You would say 'Wi-Fi 密码' (Wi-Fi mìmǎ) or '无线网络的密码' (wúxiàn wǎngluò de mìmǎ - wireless network password).
密码 (mìmǎ) is the most common and standard term for digital passwords. 口令 (kǒulìng) can also mean password, but it has broader meanings including 'command' or 'passphrase', and is less frequently used for everyday digital passwords compared to 密码.
You can ask '请问密码是多少？' (Qǐngwèn mìmǎ shì duōshao?) which means 'Excuse me, what is the password?'. If you are asking someone to provide their password for a specific purpose, you might say '请输入你的密码' (Qǐng shūrù nǐ de mìmǎ), meaning 'Please enter your password'.
If you enter the wrong 密码 (mìmǎ), the system will usually display an error message like '密码错误' (mìmǎ cuòwù), meaning 'Incorrect password'. After several incorrect attempts, the system might lock your account for security reasons.
密码 (mìmǎ) can be treated as a mass noun when referring to the general concept of a password. However, when referring to multiple specific passwords, it can be countable. For example, '我设置了两个密码' (wǒ shèzhì le liǎng ge mìmǎ - I set two passwords).
No, you should absolutely not use your birthday or any easily guessable information as your 密码 (mìmǎ). This makes your account vulnerable. A strong password is recommended.
