The Chinese word **审视 (shěnshì)** is a compound formed by combining two semantically related characters: **审 (shěn)**, meaning "to examine" or "to investigate carefully," and **视 (shì)**, meaning "to look at" or "to regard." Together, they create a verb that means "to look closely at," "to scrutinize," or "to examine critically," where **审** intensifies the action of **视**, shifting the meaning from simple observation to a deliberate, careful, and analytical form of seeing. This structure follows a common pattern in Chinese morphology where two verbs with complementary meanings are combined to form a single, more precise concept, often with a resultative or coordinative relationship.
