The Chinese word 赶不上 (gǎn bù shàng) is a verb phrase that means "to not be able to catch up with" or "to be too late for". It is composed of two characters: 赶 (gǎn), which means "to catch up with" or "to pursue", and 不上 (bù shàng), which is a negative construction that means "not to be able to" or "to be unable to".The character 赶 (gǎn) is composed of two parts: the radical 辵 (chù), which indicates that the character is related to movement, and the phonetic component 干 (gān). The character 不 (bù) is composed of two parts: the radical 否定 (fǒudìng), which indicates that the character is a negative, and the phonetic component 弗 (fú). The character 上 (shàng) is composed of two parts: the radical 尸 (shī), which indicates that the character is related to the body, and the phonetic component 尚 (shàng).The word 赶不上 (gǎn bù shàng) is commonly used in everyday speech and writing to express the idea of missing an opportunity or being too late for something. For example, if someone misses a train, they might say 我赶不上火车了 (wǒ gǎn bù shàng huǒchē le), which means "I missed the train".
