The Chinese word 摔倒 (shuāi dǎo) means "to fall down" or "to trip and fall". It is composed of two characters: 摔 (shuāi), which means "to throw" or "to fall", and 倒 (dǎo), which means "to fall down" or "to collapse". The word 摔倒 can be used in a variety of contexts, such as describing someone who has tripped and fallen, or to describe a situation in which something has been knocked over or dropped. For example, you could say 我摔倒了 (wǒ shuāi dǎo le), which means "I fell down", or 你把书摔倒了 (nǐ bǎ shū shuāi dǎo le), which means "You knocked the book over". The word 摔倒 can also be used in a figurative sense, to describe a situation in which someone has failed or been defeated. For example, you could say 他在考试中摔倒了 (tā zài kǎoshì zhōng shuāi dǎo le), which means "He failed the exam".
