Long explanation:
The Mandarin Chinese word '于是 (yúshì)' is used to transition from the cause of an event to its effect, similar to using 'so', 'therefore', or 'as a result' in English. It can be used in both formal and informal conversations to express the consequence or outcome of a previous activity, condition, or circumstance.
