How it's used
Focuses on a deep, personal understanding that comes from direct experience rather than just hearing about something. It often implies a shift in perspective or an emotional realization that changes how one views a situation. Unlike simple understanding, it carries a sense of empathy or having walked in someone else's shoes.
Examples
I finally realized how hard it is to be a parent.
You will understand the fun of it once you have tried it.

deeply realize
Common mistake
Learners often confuse it with 明白, which is a general cognitive understanding of facts or logic. Use 體會 when the realization is gained through lived experience or emotional maturity.
