Commencez gratuitementThe Chinese word 肯定 (kěndìng) is composed of two characters: 肯 (kěn) and 定 (dìng). The character 肯 originally meant "to be willing" or "to agree", and it is often used in modern Chinese to express certainty or affirmation. The character 定 originally meant "to settle" or "to determine", and it is often used in modern Chinese to express certainty or stability. When these two characters are combined, they form the word 肯定, which means "to affirm" or "to confirm". This word can be used in a variety of contexts, such as to express agreement with someone, to confirm a fact, or to make a prediction.
