相互

The Chinese character 相互 (xiāng hù) is composed of two parts: 相 (xiāng) and 互 (hù). 相 means "mutual" or "reciprocal", while 互 means "each other" or "one another". Together, 相互 means "mutual" or "reciprocal".The earliest known use of 相互 is in the Book of Changes (易经), which dates back to the 11th century BC. In the Book of Changes, 相互 is used to describe the relationship between the yin and yang forces. The yin and yang forces are said to be 相互依存 (xiāng hù yī cún), which means that they are interdependent and cannot exist without each other.相互 is also used in the Analects of Confucius (论语), which dates back to the 5th century BC. In the Analects of Confucius, 相互 is used to describe the relationship between people. Confucius said that people should treat each other with 相互尊重 (xiāng hù zūn zhòng), which means "mutual respect".相互 is a common word in modern Chinese. It is used in a variety of contexts, including business, politics, and everyday life. For example, in business, 相互合作 (xiāng hù hé zuò) means "mutual cooperation", while in politics, 相互理解 (xiāng hù lǐ jiě) means "mutual understanding". In everyday life, 相互帮助 (xiāng hù bāng zhù) means "mutual help".相互 is a versatile word that can be used to express a variety of meanings. It is an important word for HSK learners to know, as it is used frequently in both written and spoken Chinese.
