当...之际when/while (formal)HSK 6

A formal pattern meaning 'at the time when' or 'while', used to set temporal context for events. 当 introduces the time clause, 之际 (literally 'occasion/juncture') marks the end. Common in news and formal writing.

"当美国在中东点燃的伊朗冲突持续发酵,全球地缘局势陷入动荡之际,这份混乱正穿透太平洋,冲击着美国在亚洲的盟友日本。"

不仅...更/还...not only... but also (escalating)HSK 5

Expresses escalation: 'not only X, but even more so Y'. 不仅 introduces the first point, 更 or 还 introduces a stronger or additional point. Shows progression in severity or importance.

"特朗普挑起的伊朗冲突,不仅推高了全球能源价格,更直接威胁到日本的能源安全与民生稳定。"

令 + object + adjective/verbcause/make someone feelHSK 5

令 (formal 'make/cause') + person/thing + feeling/state. Expresses causation in formal contexts. Similar to 让 or 使 but more literary. The object experiences the state described by the following adjective or verb.

"从德国撤军令人深感担忧"

对...而言/来说for/as far as... is concernedHSK 4

Indicates perspective or relevance: 'for X' or 'as far as X is concerned'. 对 marks the entity, 而言 (formal) or 来说 (common) closes the phrase. Used to specify whose viewpoint or situation is being discussed.

虽...但...although... but...HSK 4
