The phrase 瞧不起 (qiáo bù qǐ) is commonly used in everyday conversation to express disdain or contempt for someone or something. It literally means "to look down upon" or "to hold in contempt." This expression can be applied in various contexts, such as when discussing someone's behavior, social status, or abilities.
In conversations, people might use 瞧不起 (qiáo bù qǐ) to convey their feelings about a person's lack of effort or perceived inferiority. For example, if someone feels that another person is not putting in enough work or is acting arrogantly despite lacking skills, they might say they 瞧不起 (qiáo bù qǐ) that person.
It is important to note that using this phrase can come across as quite strong or disrespectful, so it is often reserved for more informal settings or when expressing deep disapproval. In contrast, a more neutral or polite way to address someone's shortcomings might involve using terms like 不太满意 (bù tài mǎn yì), which means "not very satisfied."

The connotation of 瞧不起 (qiáo bù qǐ) is negative and implies a sense of disdain or disrespect towards someone or something. It can also convey a feeling of superiority or arrogance.
The first character 瞧 (qiáo) means "to look" or "to see", while the second character 不 (bù) means "not". The third character 起 (qǐ) can have multiple meanings, but in this context, it means "to hold" or "to regard".
Together, 瞧不起 (qiáo bù qǐ) can be translated as "to not hold in regard" or "to not look upon with respect". It suggests a lack of appreciation or value for someone or something.
Other Chinese words with similar connotations include 轻视 (qīng shì) and 鄙视 (bǐ shì), both of which mean "to despise" or "to look down upon". However, 瞧不起 (qiáo bù qǐ) is more commonly used in spoken language and has a slightly less severe tone compared to these two words.
Overall, 瞧不起 (qiáo bù qǐ) carries a negative connotation and should be used with caution to avoid offending others.
