About

The word 设施 is formed by combining two characters, each contributing a core meaning that merges into a single concept. 设 (shè) carries the foundational idea of "to set up", "to establish", or "to lay out". 施 (shī) adds the dynamic action of "to carry out", "to implement", or "to put into practice". Together, they conceptually describe things that are established and put into use, naturally evolving to mean the tangible results of that process: "facilities" or "installations".
