(cóng) — (preposition) from (marks a starting point in space, time, or a range); (adverb) never (used before a negative to emphasize that something has never happened)

定義

As a preposition, 从 marks a starting point in space or time ('from'), more general than 由 (which often marks the agent or decision-maker). As an adverb, 从 + negative means 'never' — similar in meaning to 从未/不曾 but simpler and HSK-2 level.

preposition
from (marks a starting point in space, time, or a range)
