About
The word 罕见 is formed by combining two conceptual ideas into a single, more potent expression. The first character, 罕 (hǎn), carries the core meaning of "rare" or "seldom". The second character, 见 (jiàn), means "to see" or "to be seen". Their combination does not simply add meanings but creates a vivid metaphorical image: something so infrequent or unusual that it is "rarely seen", which directly and intuitively conveys the idea of being exceptionally uncommon or extraordinary.
