How it's used
Functions primarily as a modifier to describe items designed specifically for armed forces. It implies a higher standard of durability or specialized functionality compared to civilian versions. When used alone as a predicate, it almost always requires the particle 嘅 to function correctly as an adjective.
Examples

Common mistake
Avoid using this to describe people or general military affairs, as it is strictly for objects or equipment. For general military matters, use 軍事 instead.
