Usage of (dù)

The character is versatile and commonly used in Mandarin to express degrees, levels, or counts. It often appears in contexts related to temperature, angles, or abstract measures such as seriousness or extent.

Common meanings

  • Degree of temperature or angle (e.g., for 30 degrees).
  • Level or extent of a quality or action (e.g., 认真程度 meaning seriousness level).
  • Number of times something happens (e.g., meaning several times).

Typical collocations

  • 气温 (temperature degree): used when talking about weather.
  • 程度 (chéngdù): degree or extent, often used to describe abstract qualities.
  • (jǐ dù): how many times, used to ask or state frequency.

Notes

When using to express frequency, it often follows words like (several) or (how many). For levels or extents, it usually pairs with (chéng) to form 程度. Avoid confusing with (bed) or (bottom), which have different meanings and pronunciations.
