Meaning: you're absolutely right

📚 Word Explanation

您说得对 (nín shuō de duì)

‘您说得对’ is a polite, respectful expression meaning ‘you’re absolutely right’ or ‘you’re completely correct.’ It combines the honorific second-person pronoun 您 (nín), the verb 说 (shuō, ‘to say’), the structural particle 得 (de) that introduces a complement of degree or result, and the adjective 对 (duì, ‘correct’). Together, they literally mean ‘you say [in such a way that it is] correct,’ conveying full agreement with emphasis on the speaker’s accuracy and authority.

This phrase is commonly used in formal or respectful conversations — for example, when agreeing with a teacher, elder, client, or superior. It signals humility, attentiveness, and deference, making it especially appropriate in professional, academic, or intergenerational settings. Unlike the more casual ‘你说得对’ (using 你), the use of 您 immediately elevates the tone and shows sincere respect.
