The Chinese word **渗入** is a verb formed through the combination of two meaningful characters (a compound word): **渗** (shèn), which means "to seep" or "to permeate," and **入** (rù), which means "to enter" or "to go into." Structurally, it follows a common **verb-resultative** pattern where the first character denotes the action (seeping) and the second character indicates the result or direction of that action (entering). Therefore, 渗入 semantically means "to seep into" or "to infiltrate," describing a process where a liquid, influence, or idea gradually and deeply penetrates something else. This formation is typical in Chinese for creating precise verbs that convey both an action and its outcome.
