The Chinese word **宽大** is a compound formed by combining two synonymous or semantically related characters: **宽** (kuān), meaning "wide" or "broad," and **大** (dà), meaning "big" or "large." This type of formation, where two characters with similar meanings are joined, is common in Chinese to create a word with an intensified or more abstract meaning. Together, they fuse their individual connotations of spatial expanse and magnitude to form the adjective **宽大**, which describes something as physically "spacious" or, more abstractly, as "lenient" or "magnanimous" in character.
