語句

1. Origins, structure, and basic meaning

• Structure: 語句 (ごく) combines word 語 and phrase 句 to cover a word or short expression.
• Basic usage: It is used for unfamiliar textbook language and for replacing difficult expressions with simpler ones.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

• Words and phrases, not full sentences only
  • 語句 spans single lexical items and short multiword units, so its scope is broader than “word” but narrower than a complete passage.
