How it's used

Unlike some other verbs, it does not require a specific aspect marker to function naturally in a sentence.

Common mistake

Avoid using it to mean 'to resume' after a long break, as it specifically implies an ongoing process. For restarting something that has stopped, use 重新開始 instead.
