About
The word 多数 is formed by directly combining two conceptual building blocks: the character 多 (duō), meaning "many" or "much", with the character 数 (shù), meaning "number" or "count". It is a logical compound where the first element describes the quality of the second, creating the combined meaning of "many-number" or "the greater number", which conceptually fuses to express the idea of "the majority" or "most".
