Definition
日益 (rì yì) is a formal, written adverb meaning 'increasingly, day by day', emphasizing steady, gradual change over time. Unlike 愈 (yù) or 愈加 (yù jiā), it does not appear in comparative patterns like 愈…愈…; and compared to 日趋 (rì qū), it focuses on the cumulative increase rather than a directional trend.
