课程摘要
未必 means “not necessarily.” Use it to say that a common assumption may be wrong.
未必 is placed before the part that the speaker does not fully accept. It does not mean a direct “no”; it means the result is uncertain or not always true. It is often used to challenge assumptions such as expensive equals good or more equals better. Do not combine it carelessly with another negative word. Compared with 不一定, 未必 is slightly more written and often sounds more thoughtful or argumentative.
