一向 (yīxiàng) means "[always](https://resources.allsetlearning.com/chinese/grammar/Always)," but is generally used to express a habit, attitude, or convention which has continued for a long period of time until the present. When you use 一向, you're conveying a sense that "it's always been this way."
## Structure
Subj. + 一向 + Habit / Attitude / etc.
## Examples
- 小王 _一向_ 上班 很 早，这次 是 怎么了？
<!-- - Xiǎo Wáng _yīxiàng_ shàngbān hěn zǎo, zhè cì shì zěnme le? -->
- Xiao Wang has always started work very early. What happened this time?
- 我 _一向_ 不 喜欢 点 外卖。
<!-- - Wǒ _yīxiàng_ bù xǐhuan diǎn wàimài. -->
- I have never liked ordering takeout.
- 妈妈 _一向_ 支持 我 的 决定。
<!-- - Māma _yīxiàng_ zhīchí wǒ de juédìng. -->
- Mom has always supported my decisions.
- 他 _一向_ 是 个 好 学生，怎么 可能 会 作弊 呢？
<!-- - Tā _yīxiàng_ shìgè hǎo xuéshēng, zěnme kěnéng huì zuòbì ne? -->
- He's always been a good student, why would he possibly cheat?
- 中国人 _一向_ 把 红色 视为 吉祥 喜庆 的 颜色。
<!-- - Zhōngguó rén _yīxiàng_ bǎ hóngsè shì wéi jíxiáng xǐqìng de yánsè. -->
- Chinese people have always considered red to be a lucky and joyous color.
- 云南 的 雨季 _一向_ 来 得 很 突然。
<!-- - Yúnnán de yǔjì _yīxiàng_ láide hěn tūrán. -->
- Yunnan's rainy season always comes suddenly.
- 他 的 态度 _一向_ 很 认真。
<!-- - Tā de tàidù _yīxiàng_ hěn rènzhēn. -->

- 我 _一向_ 都 是 这样 做，没 问题 的。
<!-- - Wǒ _yīxiàng_ dōu shì zhèyàng zuò, méi wèntí de. -->
- I always do it like this. It's no problem.
## Incorrect Usage
一向 cannot be used with verbs involving changes or actions. In this case, [一直 should be used](https://resources.allsetlearning.com/chinese/grammar/%22All_along%22_with_%22yizhi%22):
<div class="wrong">
- 中国 的 经济 _一向_ 都 在 快速 发展 。
- It must have started developing at some point.
<!-- - Zhōngguó de jīngjì _yīxiàng_ dōu zài kuàisù fāzhǎn. -->
</div>
- 中国 的 经济 _一直_ 都 在 快速 发展 。
<!-- - Zhōngguó de jīngjì _yīzhí_ dōu zài kuàisù fāzhǎn. -->
- China's economy has been continuously developing rapidly.
<div class="wrong">
- 他 _一向_ 都 在 学 汉语.
- He must have started, right?
<!-- - Tā _yīxiàng_ dōu zài xué Hànyǔ. -->
</div>
- 他 _一直_ 都 在 学 汉语.
<!-- - Tā _yīzhí_ dōu zài xué Hànyǔ. -->
- He's been studying Mandarin all this time.
一向 indicates that a certain state has continued until the present. It cannot be used to express actions in the future. Again, 一直 can be used instead:
<div class="wrong">
- 你 打算 _一向_ 在 上海 工作 吗 ？
<!-- - Nǐ dǎsuàn _yīxiàng_ zài Shànghǎi gōngzuò ma? -->
</div>
- 你 打算 _一直_ 在 上海 工作 吗 ？
<!-- - Nǐ dǎsuàn _yīzhí_ zài Shànghǎi gōngzuò ma? -->
- Do you plan to work in Shanghai indefinitely?
