The Chinese word 敢于 (gǎnyú) is composed of two characters: 敢 (gǎn) and 于 (yú). The character 敢 means "to dare" or "to venture", while 于 is a preposition that can mean "to", "at", or "in". Together, 敢于 means "to dare to" or "to venture to do something".The word 敢于 is often used in a positive sense, to describe someone who is brave or courageous. For example, you might say 敢于面对挑战 (gǎnyú miàn duì tiǎozhàn), which means "to dare to face challenges". However, 敢于 can also be used in a negative sense, to describe someone who is reckless or foolhardy. For example, you might say 敢于冒险 (gǎnyú mạo xiǎn), which means "to dare to take risks".The word 敢于 is a versatile word that can be used in a variety of contexts. It is an important word to know for HSK learners, as it is used frequently in both spoken and written Chinese.
