Grammar & Usage
How it works
The phrase "可以说 (kěyǐ shuō)" acts as an introductory phrase, meaning "one can say" or "it can be said." It expresses a speaker's opinion or assessment, often to introduce a strong statement or conclusion. The comma separates this introductory phrase from the main clause, which here is a simple declarative sentence stating a fact about 'him'.
