全市

全市 means 'entire city' or 'throughout the city.' It refers to a geographical area encompassing all parts of a city, often used in official or formal contexts.

The character 全 (quán) means 'all' or 'entire,' and 市 (shì) means 'city' or 'market.' Together, they form a compound that describes the whole city as a single unit, often used in phrases like 全市人民 (entire city people) or 全市范围 (entire city area).

全市 is commonly used in news reports, government announcements, and public information. For example, it might describe events, policies, or statistics that apply to the entire city.
