How it's used

Carries a slightly more formal or professional weight compared to the everyday 同意. It is frequently used in workplace settings or when discussing policies, proposals, and official decisions. While it functions as a verb, it often appears in contexts where one is expressing support for a specific stance or course of action.

Common mistake

Avoid using this to mean simply saying yes to a request, as it implies a deeper level of intellectual or moral alignment with a concept or proposal. For simple agreement with a person, use 同意 instead.
