How it's used
Functions as a logical connector to introduce an additional, often more compelling reason for a decision or situation. It carries a slightly more formal or argumentative tone compared to the more common spoken connector 仲有. It is frequently used to persuade someone by stacking arguments, highlighting that the secondary reason is just as significant as the first.
Examples
This job pays poorly, and on top of that, you have to work overtime all the time.
Related words
Common mistake
Learners often overuse it in casual conversation where 仲有 or 加上 would sound more natural. It is best reserved for situations where you are actively justifying a choice or explaining a negative outcome.
