How it's used

Technical terminology like this is often borrowed directly from written Chinese in academic or professional settings. While the characters are the same as in Mandarin, the pronunciation follows Cantonese phonology, making it sound natural in a lecture or scientific discussion. It is rarely used in casual daily conversation unless the topic specifically concerns physics or chemistry.

Examples

Once it exceeds the critical temperature, it cannot turn back into a liquid.

Common phrases

above the critical temperature
below the critical temperature
