The word 受审 (shòushěn) is a verb-object compound formed by combining the character 受 (shòu), meaning "to receive," "to undergo," or "to be subjected to," with the character 审 (shěn), which means "to interrogate," "to try," or "to examine." In this grammatical construction, 受 acts as the verb indicating the experience of an action, and 审 serves as its object, specifying the nature of that action—namely, a judicial interrogation or trial. Therefore, the term literally means "to undergo trial" or "to be tried," and it is used specifically in legal contexts to describe the formal process where an individual is brought before a court or authority to face judicial examination and judgment.
