About
The Chinese word 侦探 is formed by combining two characters, each contributing a core action to the concept. The first character, 侦 (zhēn), carries the inherent meaning of spying, inquiring, or investigating. The second character, 探 (tàn), means to explore, probe, or search into something. When fused, they create a compound where the actions of investigating (侦) and exploring/discovering (探) synergize to fully embody the role of a detective, one who systematically investigates to uncover secrets or solve mysteries.
