How to use 出访
出访 is a formal word used mostly in news about officials or delegations traveling abroad on official business. It often appears with a destination, as in 出访 + country. Example: 总统下周将出访日本。(Zǒngtǒng xià zhōu jiāng chūfǎng Rìběn.) The president will make an official visit to Japan next week.
出 (chū) means to go out, and 访 (fǎng) means to visit. A leader goes out of the country to visit another one: 出访.
Common mistake: Learners sometimes use 出访 for ordinary trips, like visiting friends or traveling for fun. In those cases use 拜访 (bàifǎng) or 去看 (qù kàn), because 出访 sounds official and is out of place.
