The Chinese word "此刻" is composed of two characters: "此" and "刻". The character "此" means "this" or "the present", while the character "刻" means "moment" or "instant". Together, the two characters mean "this moment" or "the present moment".The word "此刻" is often used to refer to the present moment in time, as opposed to the past or the future. It can also be used to emphasize the importance of the present moment, or to remind someone to live in the present.For example, the sentence "此刻，我正在学习汉语。" means "At this moment, I am studying Chinese." The sentence "此刻，我们应该珍惜彼此。" means "At this moment, we should cherish each other."The word "此刻" is a common word in Chinese, and it is used in both spoken and written language. It is a useful word to know for HSK learners, as it can be used to express a variety of ideas and concepts.
