How it's used

Focuses on the ability to produce original concepts or designs that stand out from the conventional. It is frequently used to praise someone's work or to suggest that a proposal needs more unique thinking. Unlike formal contexts where it might sound abstract, in daily speech it is often paired with adjectives like 好 to emphasize the strength of the innovation.

Common mistake

Avoid using it as a verb. It is strictly a noun, so you cannot say 創意咗 to mean 'to have innovated'. Use 諗出嚟 or 創作 instead if you need to describe the action of being creative.
