How it's used
Focuses on the subjective feeling or evaluation formed after observing a person, event, or situation. It is more formal than the common word 印象 and is often used in professional, academic, or critical contexts. Use it when you want to sound more analytical about how someone or something comes across.
Examples
My impression of him is that he is very professional.
Related words
Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 感覺, which refers to a physical or emotional feeling. 觀感 specifically requires an element of observation or assessment of an external object or person.
