遇上

• Pinyin: yù shang
• Desglose de hanzi: 遇 = 辶 + 禺 (movement + meeting — to encounter); 上 = vertical stroke + horizontal base (upward direction — here functions as a resultative complement indicating contact achieved)

Significado

Toparse con; encontrarse con; dar con (por casualidad).

More colloquial and neutral than 遇到, and often implies an element of chance or coincidence. Can be used for both positive and negative encounters. Also used to mean 'to be born into' or 'to live through' a particular era — as in 遇上了好时代 (to have come across a good era). Frequently appears in oral speech and informal writing.

Ejemplos
