The Chinese word 支出 (chīchū) means "expenditure" or "spending". It is composed of two characters: 支 (zhī), which means "to support" or "to pay", and 出 (chū), which means "to go out" or "to spend". The word 支出 is often used in financial contexts to refer to the money that is spent on a particular item or activity. For example, a company might have a 支出预算 (chīchū yùsuàn), or budget, that outlines the expected expenditures for the year. The word 支出 can also be used in a more general sense to refer to any kind of spending, such as personal expenses or household expenses.支出 is a very common word in Chinese and is used in a variety of contexts. It is important for HSK learners to understand the meaning and usage of this word in order to be able to communicate effectively in Chinese.
