- Mostly lives in 一般 (yìbān) = ordinary/generally: 一般来说 (yìbān lái shuō) generally speaking, 他很一般 (tā hěn yìbān) he's nothing special.
- As a suffix it means 'like / -ish', forming similes: 雪一般白 (xuě yìbān bái) white as snow, 飞一般的速度 (fēi yìbān de sùdù) flying-fast speed.
- Don't read it as the boat 舟 sense; in daily use it's the 'kind/manner' meaning.
