How it's used

Used to describe anything that possesses significant force, intensity, or capability, ranging from physical strength to economic performance or even a person's skill set. It carries a slightly more formal or emphatic tone than simply saying 好勁. It is frequently employed in news reports or professional contexts to emphasize the magnitude of an event or the prowess of a competitor.

Common mistake

Avoid using this to describe a person's physical health or stamina; for that, use 精神 or 夠力 instead. It is strictly for describing the intensity or power of an external force, performance, or ability.
