What It Means

举报 is the word you use when you see someone breaking the rules. It is more than just sharing news. It is an official act of telling an authority. Think of it as 'reporting a violation.' You are pointing your finger at a specific action or person. It carries a sense of justice or following the law.

How To Use It

You usually place the person or thing being reported after the word. For example, you 举报 a neighbor for loud music. Or you 举报 a post on social media. It works just like a standard verb in English. You can say 'I want to 举报 him.' It is direct and clear.

When To Use It

Use this in serious situations. Use it when you see someone cheating on a test. Use it if a business is doing something illegal. It is very common in the digital world today. If you see a scammer online, you click the 举报 button. It feels official and responsible.

When NOT To Use It

Do not use this for casual gossip with friends. If your friend ate your sandwich, do not say 举报. That sounds way too intense! It is not for small, personal accidents. Avoid using it if you are just complaining. 举报 implies you want the person to get in trouble. Using it for a joke might make people think you are actually calling the police.

Cultural Background

In China, 举报 has a strong history. It was once a very heavy, political word. Now, it is part of everyday internet life. There are 'Reporting Centers' for everything from food safety to internet rumors. People feel it is their civic duty to keep the community safe. It shows a culture that values social order and rules.

Common Variations

You might see 实名举报. This means reporting someone using your real name. It shows you are very serious. There is also 匿名举报, which is an anonymous report. On apps like WeChat, you will just see a simple button labeled 举报. It is the universal 'Report' icon we all know.

Notas de uso

Use `举报` for official violations. For customer service complaints, use `投诉` (tóusù) instead.
