急迫
急迫 30秒で
- 急迫 (jípò) means urgent or pressing, used for situations that demand immediate action.
- It is more formal than '很急' and focuses on the pressure of time and necessity.
- Commonly used for deadlines, social issues, and a personal sense of urgency (急迫感).
- Distinguish it from '紧急' (emergency) and '迫切' (eager/strong desire).
The Chinese word 急迫 (jípò) is a powerful adjective that translates primarily to 'urgent,' 'pressing,' or 'imperative.' At its core, it describes a situation, a need, or a feeling that demands immediate attention and cannot be delayed. Unlike simple words for 'fast' or 'quick,' 急迫 carries a weight of necessity and often a sense of external pressure. It is composed of two characters: 急 (jí), meaning urgent or hurried, and 迫 (pò), meaning to force, compel, or press. Together, they create a semantic image of a situation that is 'pressing in' on you with great speed.
- Semantic Nuance
- While '紧急' (jǐnjí) often refers to an emergency situation involving danger, '急迫' (jípò) is more frequently used for deadlines, social needs, or psychological states where the clock is ticking. It is the word you use when the environment demands action now.
目前的任务非常急迫,我们必须马上开始工作。(The current task is extremely urgent; we must start working immediately.)
In daily life, you might encounter this word in news reports discussing climate change, where the 'need for action' is described as 急迫. In a professional setting, a manager might describe a project's timeline as 急迫 to motivate the team. It is not just about speed; it is about the gravity of the timing. If something is 急迫, ignoring it will likely lead to negative consequences or missed opportunities. It implies a narrowing window of time where the pressure to act is palpable.
他感到一种急迫感,想要尽快完成学业。(He felt a sense of urgency, wanting to finish his studies as soon as possible.)
- Common Contexts
- You will see this in academic writing (urgent reforms), business (pressing matters), and literature (describing a character's anxious state of mind).
Furthermore, the word is often paired with '感' (gǎn - sense) to form 急迫感 (a sense of urgency). This is a very common collocation in both self-improvement and corporate leadership contexts. Leaders try to instill a 急迫感 in their employees to prevent complacency. In environmental discourse, the 急迫性 (jípòxìng - urgency/imperativeness) of climate goals is a recurring theme. Understanding this word helps you grasp the tone of serious, time-sensitive discussions in Chinese society.
由于时间的急迫,我们不得不简化流程。(Due to the urgency of time, we had to simplify the process.)
- Formal vs. Informal
- It leans towards formal or written Chinese. In casual speech, people might just say '很急' (hěn jí), but '急迫' adds a layer of seriousness and descriptive depth.
解决贫困问题是一项急迫的任务。(Solving the problem of poverty is an urgent task.)
Using 急迫 correctly requires understanding its grammatical flexibility. As an adjective, it can function as a predicate (coming after the subject), an attributive (modifying a noun), or even an adverbial (modifying a verb, though less common than its noun-modifying form). The most common structure is [Subject] + 非常/十分 + 急迫. This emphasizes the state of the subject.
- Pattern 1: As a Predicate
- Used to describe the state of a situation. Example: '形势十分急迫' (The situation is very pressing).
如果我们不采取行动,后果将变得非常急迫。(If we don't take action, the consequences will become very urgent.)
When modifying a noun, use the particle 的 (de). Common nouns modified by 急迫 include 任务 (rènwu - task), 需求 (xūqiú - demand/need), and 问题 (wèntí - problem). This creates a phrase like '急迫的任务' (an urgent task). This is the most formal way to highlight the priority of a specific item.
- Pattern 2: Modifying Nouns
- Structure: [急迫] + 的 + [Noun]. Example: '急迫的需求' (Urgent demand).
灾区人民有着急迫的食物需求。(The people in the disaster area have an urgent need for food.)
Another frequent usage involves describing a person's inner feeling or tone of voice. When someone speaks in a way that shows they are in a hurry or anxious, you can say they speak with an 急迫的语气 (urgent tone). This adds descriptive color to narrative writing, allowing the reader to 'hear' the tension in the character's voice.
他在电话里用急迫的语气请求帮助。(He asked for help in an urgent tone over the phone.)
- Pattern 3: In Comparison
- Used with '比' (bǐ) to compare levels of urgency. Example: '这件事比那件事更急迫' (This matter is more urgent than that one).
Finally, notice the difference between 急迫 and 迫切 (pòqiè). While often interchangeable, 迫切 is slightly more focused on the 'desire' or 'eagerness' (e.g., 迫切希望 - urgently hope), whereas 急迫 is more about the 'objective situation' or 'deadline' (e.g., 时间急迫 - time is pressing). In your writing, use 急迫 when you want to highlight that external circumstances are forcing the hand.
面对如此急迫的情势,他保持了冷静。(Facing such a pressing situation, he remained calm.)
You are most likely to encounter 急迫 in professional, journalistic, and academic environments. It is a 'high-register' word, meaning it sounds educated and precise. In a Chinese news broadcast (CCTV), you might hear a news anchor discussing the 急迫性 of international climate negotiations or the 急迫 need for economic reform. It signals to the audience that the topic is of high priority and requires immediate collective action.
- Scene 1: The Corporate Boardroom
- A CEO might say: '由于市场竞争日益激烈,我们的转型任务变得非常急迫。' (Due to increasingly fierce market competition, our transformation task has become very urgent.)
经理强调了完成报告的急迫性。(The manager emphasized the urgency of completing the report.)
In literary works or high-quality TV dramas, 急迫 is used to describe the atmosphere of a scene. Imagine a historical drama where a messenger arrives with news of an invading army. The narrator might describe his breathing as 急迫 or the situation at the border as 万分急迫 (extremely urgent). Here, it builds tension and suspense, telling the reader that the characters are under immense pressure.
- Scene 2: Humanitarian Reports
- Non-profits often use this word to solicit donations. '为受灾群众提供医疗援助是目前最急迫的事情。' (Providing medical aid to disaster victims is the most urgent matter right now.)
In academic lectures, particularly in social sciences or environmental studies, professors use 急迫 to discuss societal challenges. For example, '人口老龄化带来的挑战非常急迫' (The challenges brought by an aging population are very pressing). Using this word instead of the simpler '重要' (important) conveys that time is a critical factor and that delaying action will exacerbate the problem.
专家们正在讨论保护濒危物种的急迫性。(Experts are discussing the urgency of protecting endangered species.)
Lastly, you might hear it in personal development podcasts or 'hustle culture' content. Speakers might talk about creating a 急迫感 in your life to avoid procrastination. In this context, it’s about internalizing the value of time. So, whether it’s a national crisis or a personal deadline, 急迫 is the go-to word for describing the 'now-or-never' feeling.
One of the most common mistakes learners make with 急迫 is confusing it with its close cousins, 紧急 (jǐnjí) and 急忙 (jímáng). While they all share the '急' character, their applications differ significantly. Using the wrong one can make your Chinese sound unnatural or even change the meaning of your sentence.
- Mistake 1: 急迫 vs. 紧急
- '紧急' is for 'emergencies' (think sirens, fire, accidents). '急迫' is for 'pressing needs' or 'deadlines'. You wouldn't say '急迫出口' for an emergency exit; it must be '紧急出口'.
Incorrect: 这是一个急迫的情况,快打120!
Correct: 这是一个紧急的情况,快打120!(This is an emergency, call 120!)
Another error is using 急迫 to describe a person's physical speed. If someone is running fast, you use '快' (kuài). If they are doing something in a hurry, you use '急忙' (jímáng). 急迫 describes the nature of the situation, not the physical velocity of an object or person. You cannot say '他走得很急迫' to mean he is walking fast; that would imply he is walking with a sense of existential urgency, which sounds very poetic but strange in daily life.
- Mistake 2: Overusing '的'
- Learners often forget that when '急迫' is the predicate, '的' is not needed. '任务很急迫' is correct. '任务很急迫的' is usually wrong unless you are ending with a noun phrase.
Incorrect: 我们的时间是急迫的。
Correct: 我们的时间很急迫。(Our time is pressing/urgent.)
Lastly, be careful with the word 迫切 (pòqiè). While they are 90% synonymous, 迫切 is better for desires. If you say '我急迫想见你', it sounds a bit technical. '我迫切想见你' (I urgently/eagerly want to see you) sounds much more natural because it involves a personal wish. Use 急迫 for objective tasks and 迫切 for subjective desires.
- Mistake 3: Confusing with '焦急'
- '焦急' (jiāojí) is an emotion (anxiety). '急迫' is a state of the task. You are '焦急' because the task is '急迫'. Don't mix them up!
To truly master 急迫, you must see how it sits within its family of related words. Chinese has many ways to express urgency, and choosing the right one shows a high level of fluency. Let's compare 急迫 with its most common alternatives.
- 急迫 (jípò) vs. 紧急 (jǐnjí)
- '紧急' is for crises and immediate danger. '急迫' is for things that need to be done soon due to constraints.
Example: '紧急刹车' (emergency brake) vs. '急迫的任务' (urgent task).
虽然情况不紧急,但截止日期很急迫。(Although the situation isn't an emergency, the deadline is very pressing.)
Next is 迫切 (pòqiè). This is perhaps the closest synonym. The difference is subtle: 迫切 often describes a strong, internal desire or a widespread social need. 急迫 is more about the objective pressure of time. You '迫切' hope for peace, but a '急迫' project needs to be finished by Friday.
- 急迫 (jípò) vs. 迫切 (pòqiè)
- '迫切' focuses on 'eagerness' and 'demand'. '急迫' focuses on 'time constraint' and 'pressure'.
由于干旱,农民们迫切需要降雨。(Due to the drought, farmers urgently need rain.)
Another word is 紧迫 (jǐnpò). This is almost identical to 急迫 and is often used interchangeably, especially with time (时间紧迫). However, 紧迫 feels slightly more like 'tightness' (like a tight schedule), while 急迫 feels more like 'hurry'. In most cases, you can use either, but '时间紧迫' is a very fixed and common colocation.
- Summary Table
- - 紧急: Emergency/Danger
- 急迫: Pressing/Time-constrained
- 迫切: Eager/Demanding
- 紧迫: Tight/Strained
时间紧迫,我们没时间开玩笑了。(Time is tight; we have no time for jokes.)

語源
The word '急迫' comes from the combination of '急' (jí) and '迫' (pò). '急' originally depicted a person's heart (心) being strained or contracted, indicating anxiety or speed. '迫' combines the 'walk' radical (辶) with 'white' (白 - used phonetically or to mean clear/plain), originally meaning to get close to or to press upon.
元の意味: To press upon someone or something with great speed or anxiety.

In English, 'urgent' is used in both medical and business contexts. '急迫' is slightly more aligned with 'pressing' or 'imperative' in formal English.

よくある質問
10 問Technically, you could say it in a very dramatic or poetic way, but in real life, it would sound very strange. Use '我很急' (wǒ hěn jí) instead. '急迫' is for serious situations like deadlines or social crises.
It is much more common in writing, news reports, and formal speeches. In casual conversation, people usually prefer '很急' or '赶时间'.
'急迫性' (jípòxìng) refers to the objective quality of urgency of a thing (e.g., the urgency of a reform). '急迫感' (jípògǎn) refers to the subjective feeling of urgency a person has (e.g., feeling a sense of urgency to finish a project).
