"未必" (wèibì) is a Chinese phrase that means "not necessarily" or "may not." It is used to express doubt or uncertainty about a statement or assumption. The structure of "未必" is straightforward as it is typically used before a verb or adjective to indicate that the situation described by the verb or adjective is not certain or definite.
