Sanitary conditions or hygienic state of an environment.

How it's used
Focuses specifically on the physical state of cleanliness and hygiene in a public or private space. It is commonly used in formal reports or news, but remains perfectly natural when discussing everyday environments like restaurants or housing. It implies a standard or level of maintenance rather than just a single act of cleaning.
Examples
The sanitary conditions of this restaurant are very poor.
What do you think about the sanitary conditions here?
Related words
Common phrases
improve sanitary conditions
poor sanitary conditions
Common mistake
Avoid using this to describe a person's personal health or physical fitness, as it refers exclusively to environmental hygiene. Use 健康 for personal health instead.
