How it's used

Used primarily in formal or business contexts to refer to the specific, granular information of a situation or event. While it functions as a noun, it often appears in professional correspondence or service announcements rather than casual conversation between close friends. It carries a slightly more serious tone than simply asking for the facts.

Common mistake

Learners often use this word in overly casual settings where a simpler term like 內容 or 情況 would sound more natural. It is not a verb, so avoid using it to mean 'to explain in detail'.
