AI Study Notes for 到期
到期 (dàoqī) vs 过期 (guòqī) — use 到期 when referring to the due date of an obligation, while 过期 indicates that something has expired past its due date.
Be careful to use 到期 in contexts related to deadlines and expirations; it is not a general term for time. It is typically used in formal contexts, especially in finance and legal settings. Common collocations include 到期日 (due date) and 到期贷款 (matured loan).
While 到期 is not typically found in the lower HSK levels, it is relevant for learners at HSK 5 and above who encounter finance-related vocabulary. Students should focus on recognizing its use in formal writing and discussions around contracts and deadlines.
Learners often confuse 到期 with 过期 (guòqī), which means 'to expire' but has a broader meaning and can apply to food or licenses. Remember, 到期 is specific to deadlines and obligations.
