对外

The Chinese word 对外 (duìwài) is composed of two characters: 对 (duì) and 外 (wài). 对 means "to face" or "to confront", while 外 means "outside" or "external". Together, 对外 means "to face the outside world" or "to deal with foreign affairs".The word 对外 is often used in a political context to refer to China's foreign policy. For example, the Chinese government's policy of "对外开放" (duìwài kāifàng) means "opening up to the outside world". This policy has led to increased trade and investment between China and other countries.对外 is also used in a more general sense to refer to any kind of interaction with the outside world. For example, a company might have a 对外贸易部 (duìwài màoyì bù) or "foreign trade department" to handle its international business.The word 对外 is a versatile term that can be used in a variety of contexts. It is an important word for HSK learners to know, as it is often used in news articles and other texts about China.
