只能

只能 means 'only can' or 'must' in English, expressing a limitation or necessity. It emphasizes that something is the only possibility or option available.

The character 只 (zhǐ) means 'only,' and 能 (néng) means 'can' or 'be able to.' Together, they form a phrase that conveys restriction or inevitability, often used to describe situations where alternatives are not available.

在日常生活中，只能常用于表达无奈或必然性。例如，在时间或资源有限的情况下，人们会说“我只能明天再做这件事”（I can only do this thing tomorrow）。它也常见于正式或书面语中，强调决策的唯一性。
