Resumen de la lección
Read the sample sentence and notice how 所谓的…… works in the frame: 所谓的 A.
所谓的 is placed before a noun or noun phrase, such as 所谓的成功 or 所谓的好工作. It often shows that the speaker is referring to a common label, not necessarily fully agreeing with it. Do not use it before a full explanation; for defining a concept, use 所谓 A，就是 B. Compared with 普通的 “ordinary,” 所谓的 is about a name or label, not a quality of the object itself.
