About

The word 价格 (jiàgé, "price") is formed by combining two characters, each contributing a core idea to the concept. The first character, 价 (jià), carries the fundamental meaning of "value" or "worth" of an item. The second character, 格 (gé), originally meant a "standard", "measure", or "benchmark". Therefore, the compound literally and conceptually signifies the standardized value or the measured worth of something, effectively forming the complete idea of a "price" as the established value for exchange in a market.
