About

The word "嫌疑人" is formed by combining three characters: 嫌 (xián), which conveys "suspicion", 疑 (yí), meaning "doubt", and 人 (rén), meaning "person". The characters 嫌 and 疑 jointly emphasize the notion of being suspected, while 人 specifies that it refers to an individual, resulting in the meaning "suspect" or a person under investigation.
