About

The Chinese word 入选 (rùxuǎn) is a compound verb formed by combining two characters: 入 (rù), meaning "to enter" or "to join", and 选 (xuǎn), meaning "to select" or "to choose". It follows a common verb-resultative or verb-complement structure in Chinese, where the first character (入) describes the action or result, and the second character (选) specifies the domain or context of that action. Literally, it means "to enter into a selection", and by extension, it signifies to be chosen or to be selected for inclusion (e.g., in a list, team, competition, or award). The word succinctly conveys the successful outcome of a selective process.
