How to use 议题
议题 is a formal word used for issues on a meeting agenda, in politics, media, and official discussions. It often goes with verbs like 讨论 (tǎolùn) to discuss or 提出 (tíchū) to raise. Example: 这次会议的主要议题是环境保护。(Zhè cì huìyì de zhǔyào yìtí shì huánjìng bǎohù.) The main topic of this meeting is environmental protection.
议 (yì) means to discuss, as in 会议 (huìyì) meeting, and 题 (tí) means a topic or question, as in 问题 (wèntí). Put them together and you get the topic that people sit down to discuss.
Common mistake: Learners often use 议题 for casual chat topics, but for everyday conversation 话题 (huàtí) is the natural choice. Also do not confuse 议 (yì, fourth tone) with 义 (yì) meaning or 以 (yǐ, third tone).
