  • Used to make the significance of something stand out clearly.

  • Follows the structure: Event + highlights + importance of something.

What It Means

Think of the character (tū). It literally looks like something sticking out. When you use 凸显重要性, you are saying that a certain event has made a truth 'stick out' from the background. It is not just about saying something is important. It is about the act of making that importance visible and clear to everyone.

How To Use It

You need a 'trigger' and a 'target.' The trigger is usually a situation, like a mistake, a crisis, or a success. The target is the 'importance' of a concept. You will usually see the structure: [Event] + 凸显了 + [Concept] + 的重要性. It acts as a powerful verb-object combo that sounds sharp and professional.

When To Use It

This is a go-to phrase for meetings, news reports, and academic writing. Use it when you want to sound persuasive. If you are at a meeting and a project failed because of bad communication, you say this to point out the lesson learned. It is also great for serious social media posts or when giving advice to a friend about life choices.

When NOT To Use It

Avoid this phrase for trivial, everyday things. If you are choosing between chocolate or vanilla ice cream, don't say it 'highlights the importance' of flavor. That is way too dramatic! It also feels out of place in very casual slang-heavy chats with close friends unless you are being intentionally sarcastic or funny.

Cultural Background

Chinese culture values learning from experience and 'seeing the big picture.' This phrase reflects that. It is a sophisticated way to point out a truth without being overly aggressive. Instead of saying 'You must do this,' you say 'This situation highlights the importance of doing this.' It lets the facts do the talking for you.

Common Variations

You might hear 突出重要性 (tūchū zhòngyàoxìng), which is slightly more common in casual speech. There is also 彰显 (zhāngxiǎn), which is very formal and usually reserved for grand concepts like national spirit or core values. For your daily professional life, 凸显 is the perfect middle ground.

ملاحظات الاستخدام

This is a formal verb-object construction. It is best used in written reports, speeches, or serious discussions. In very casual settings, it can sound overly dramatic or stiff.

The Visual Character

The character `凸` is one of the few Chinese characters that looks exactly like its meaning (convex/protruding). It's a great party trick to show your friends!
