Usage notes

In Mandarin, this word was used orally and unwritten. Chinese dialectal dictionaries record this word by making use of a homophonic character 㨃. In the 2010s, 懟／怼 (duì) began to gain popularity, which can either still be pronounced as duǐ or—much less frequently—as dùi, especially in TV reports, for being recognised as a 單音字／单音字 (“monophonic character”).

While in Cantonese, this word is commonly written as 隊 / 队.
