从来不

• 拼音: cóng lái bù
• 汉字拆解: 从 = from; 来 = come (together: since, always); 不 = not

含义

Never; have never. An emphatic phrase expressing that something has not happened at any point.

Stronger than just 不, it emphasizes consistency over time. Used for habits, character traits, or historical facts. The past-oriented 从来 combined with 不 creates emphatic negation.

例句

1. 他从来不迟到，今天却破天荒地晚了半小时。
2. 她从来不在背后说人坏话，为人非常正直。
