HSK 7

漢字分解

Meaning and Usage

The character (gǔ) primarily refers to a 'share' or 'portion,' especially in financial contexts such as stocks (股票). It also denotes a part of the body, specifically the 'thigh' or 'crotch' area.

Common Collocations

  • 股票 (yī gǔ gǔpiào): one share of stock, used in finance.
  • (gǔquán): equity or shareholding power.
  • (gǔ bù): the crotch or thigh area of clothing.

Usage Notes

When used in financial contexts, refers to a unit of stock or share and is often combined with 股票 (stock) or (equity). In clothing or anatomy, it refers to the thigh or crotch area, often used when describing fit or injury.

Avoid confusing with similar-sounding words like (bone) or (solid). The context usually clarifies the meaning. In conversation, is often part of compound words rather than standing alone.
