뜻

적당량

A practical, prescriptive term most commonly found in recipes, medical dosage instructions, and agricultural guidance — wherever a precise quantity cannot be fixed but must be calibrated to context. 适量 instructs the reader to add or use an amount judged to be right for the situation. Common collocations: 适量添加 (add an appropriate amount), 适量饮水 (drink an appropriate amount of water), 适量施肥 (apply fertiliser in appropriate quantities). Distinct from 适度 (moderate in degree/extent — broader and more abstract) and 适当 (appropriate, suitable — more about correctness of choice than quantity).

피해야 할 표현

• 适量 when describing a moderate degree of an action or behaviour — use 适度 (in moderation, to an appropriate degree); 适量 is specifically about calibrating the quantity or volume of a substance, not the intensity or extent of a behaviour or policy
