The Chinese word 之外 (zhīwài) is composed of two characters: 之 (zhī) and 外 (wài). 之 is a versatile character that can function as a pronoun, a possessive particle, or a conjunction. In this case, it functions as a possessive particle, indicating that the following word is related to the subject of the sentence. 外 means "outside" or "beyond". Together, 之外 means "outside of" or "beyond".For example, the sentence 他住在公园之外 (tā zhù zài gōngyuán zhīwài) means "He lives outside the park". In this sentence, 之外 indicates that the subject 他 (tā) lives in a location that is outside of the park.The word 之外 can also be used in a figurative sense. For example, the sentence 他在工作之外的生活很丰富 (tā zài gōngzuò zhīwài de shēnghuó hěn fēngfù) means "His life outside of work is very rich". In this sentence, 之外 indicates that the subject's life outside of work is different from his life at work.The word 之外 is a common word in Chinese and can be used in a variety of contexts. By understanding the etymology of this word, HSK learners can better understand its meaning and usage.
