Question 1

报道 vs 报告

Answer 1

报道 is typically used for news reporting or media coverage, whereas 报告 is used for formal reports or presentations in professional, academic, or business contexts.

报道 is more about informing the public or audience, often through news outlets, while 报告 involves delivering detailed, structured information in a formal setting.

Example 1:

我去学校报道了 - Instead, it means to report oneself or to register at a location, usually as part of an official or administrative process. For example, when students go to school at the start of a term or for an event, they might need to report (check in, register, or announce their arrival), and this action is described by 报道

报道 in this context is typically done at the start of a period (e.g., the beginning of a semester, a new school year, or an event). It refers to the act of registering or checking in at the school, usually for the first time in that period, rather than something done every day

Example 2:

• 我看新闻报道西班牙现在特别热

Question 2

瞎 and blindness

Answer 2

眼睛痛, 我拍我瞎了

The character 瞎 (xiā) can indeed convey the meaning of blindly, randomly, or without direction. It often implies doing something without purpose, carefully thinking, or in a haphazard or careless manner.

• 不要瞎想 (bù yào xiā xiǎng) means “Don’t think randomly” or “Don’t overthink”.
• 瞎想: think randomly, imagine things, overthink
• 就吃饭了，瞎逛逛
• 随便瞎说 suggests speaking without thinking carefully, making random or unfounded statements, or saying something without concern for accuracy
• 那你是随便瞎说吗？因为我只是好奇喜欢问问
• 我自己瞎做的
