زمینه فرهنگی

The concept of '争取' (zhēngqǔ) reflects a proactive Chinese mindset where one must actively 'fight for' or 'strive toward' a goal rather than being passive. In a society that values collective consensus, gaining support is often the first and most crucial step in any major undertaking, from government policy to family planning.

💡

The 'Middle' Trick

You can insert the person you're convincing right before '支持'. For example: '争取他的支持' (Strive for HIS support).

⚠️

Don't sound too desperate

While '努力' shows effort, using this phrase too often in a single conversation can make you sound like you are begging. Balance it with facts!

What It Means

Think of this as the 'hustle' for consensus. It is not just a polite request for help. It implies you are putting in real work. You are making a case. You are trying to convince others that your cause is worthy. It combines 'hard work' with 'winning something over.'

How To Use It

You use it like a standard verb phrase. You can place the target of your persuasion in the middle or at the end. For example, you can strive for 'everyone's' support. It fits perfectly in work emails. It also works when talking about family decisions. It sounds proactive and determined.

When To Use It

Use this when you have a big idea at the office. Use it when you want your friends to join a specific trip. It is great for political contexts too. If you are asking for a budget increase, this is your go-to phrase. It shows you respect the other person's power to say no.

When NOT To Use It

Do not use this for small, trivial favors. Don't say it when asking someone to pass the salt. It sounds too intense for that. Also, avoid it if the support is already guaranteed. It implies a struggle or a challenge to overcome. If you're forcing someone, this isn't the right word either.

Cultural Background

In Chinese culture, 'Renhe' (human harmony) is vital. Nothing gets done alone. Success often depends on the strength of your 'Guanxi' (relationships). Therefore, 'striving for support' is a respected social skill. It shows you are a team player. It shows you value the collective opinion over solo action.

Common Variations

You might hear 寻求支持 (xúnqiú zhīchí) which means 'seeking support.' That version is a bit softer. Another one is 争取理解 (zhēngqǔ lǐjiě), meaning 'striving for understanding.' If you want to be very formal, use 博得支持 (bódé zhīchí) to mean 'winning over' support through charm or merit.

نکات کاربردی

This phrase is neutral but leans toward professional or serious personal contexts. Avoid using it for trivial requests to prevent sounding overly intense or sarcastic.

💬

The Power of 'Renhe'

In China, having 'support' is often seen as more important than having the 'right' answer. This phrase is the key to unlocking that social capital.
