About

The word 订婚 is formed by combining the concept of "settling" or "concluding" (订, as in finalizing an agreement) with the concept of "marriage" (婚). It conceptually represents the act of formally establishing or securing the marriage agreement itself, visualizing the moment when the future union is officially arranged and agreed upon by the families or individuals involved.
