According to a dictionary, tend to ~ is translated into the following words:



  • 倾向

  • 易於

  • 走向

  • 有～的倾向

But I think all of them are not used as often while reading, and thus is very awkward if I use them in writing. So there should be other expressions that mean tend to ~ in Chinese, for example in the following examples:




The developed countries tend to have less children.



Women tend to take jobs related to education, childcare, and health.




But in these cases, I think the words above are a bit awkward; I have never seen 易於 or 走向 are used while reading. So what words or expressions should I use to express tend to ~ in Chinese?

            Both 倾向于 and 偏向于 can be used for 'tend to'



            • 倾向于 (lend toward/ tend to) - consciously/ subconsciously choose to


            • 偏向于 (bias toward/ tend to) - consciously / subconsciously choose to


            Both 倾向 and 偏向 can be noun (tendency) or verb (lend toward/ bias toward)



            易於 = easily



            有～的倾向 = have the tendency of ~

                              One-line joke

                              A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain.

"Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala...
