How it's used

This term is almost exclusively reserved for formal political or organizational settings like the Legislative Council. It carries a sense of official procedure, requiring a formal process of debate and voting. Avoid using it for casual suggestions or ideas between friends, where words like 提議 or 意見 are much more appropriate.

Common mistake

Learners often confuse this with 提議, which is a general term for any suggestion or proposal in daily life. Using 議案 in a casual conversation will sound overly stiff and out of place, as if you are conducting a formal meeting.
