About

The formation of 与此同时 is a logical, step-by-step assembly of conceptual building blocks. It begins with the core relational idea of "与" (and/with), which immediately connects to a specific point of reference, "此" (this). This combined unit "与此" (with/regarding this) is then placed directly alongside the temporal concept "同时" (same time). The construction visually and conceptually mirrors its meaning: it takes an existing subject or situation and positions the notion of simultaneity right beside it, creating a complete phrase that functions as a single cohesive adverb.
