What It Means
一切都好 is your go-to phrase for peace of mind. It covers everything from your health to your job. It literally translates to 'everything is all good.' It is simple, clean, and very positive. Think of it as a verbal thumbs-up for your whole life.
How To Use It
You can use it as a standalone sentence. If a friend asks how you are, just say 一切都好. You can also add it to the end of an update. For example, 'I moved houses, and 一切都好.' It functions as both a status report and a comforting closing statement.
When To Use It
Use it when replying to 'How are things?' (最近怎么样？). It is perfect for the end of an email to a client. It works great when calling your parents to stop them from worrying. Use it when a waiter asks if your meal is okay. It is the ultimate 'no-drama' response for any situation.
When NOT To Use It
Do not use it if things are actually falling apart. If your house is flooding, 一切都好 will sound like sarcasm. Avoid using it in very deep, emotional heart-to-hearts where details matter. It can sometimes feel a bit dismissive if someone wants a long talk. Don't use it if you are specifically complaining about one thing. It is a 'big picture' phrase, not a specific one.
Cultural Background
Chinese culture often values harmony and 'smoothness' (顺). Saying 一切都好 signals that your life is in balance. It is a common way to show respect by not burdening others with small problems. In traditional letters, people often wrote this to show filial piety to elders. It implies that you are capable and managing your life well.
Common Variations
You might hear 一切顺利 (Yīqiè shùnlì) which means 'everything is going smoothly.' For a more casual vibe, people just say 都好 (dōu hǎo). If you want to be extra emphatic, try 一切都挺好的. This adds a 'quite' or 'very' feel to the goodness. In business, 一切正常 (Yīqiè zhèngcháng) means 'everything is normal/on track.'
사용 참고사항
This phrase is safe for almost any social register. It sits perfectly in the middle of formal and informal, making it a 'safe bet' for beginners.
Tone matters
Say it with a smile to sound genuine.
