How it's used

Focuses on the act of multiple people producing sound simultaneously to express the same message or perform a rhythmic task. It is frequently used in formal settings like school assemblies or religious services, but also appears in casual contexts when describing a group reaction. Unlike simply saying 一齊, this word specifically emphasizes the vocal or auditory component of the action.

Examples

Common phrases

Common mistake

Avoid using this to describe people simply doing the same action together without sound, such as walking or eating, as it strictly relates to vocalization.
