About

The Chinese word "传递" is formed through the semantic combination of two characters: "传", meaning to transmit or convey, and "递", meaning to pass or deliver. Together, they create a compound word that encapsulates the idea of passing something, like information, objects, or cultural practices, from one entity to another in a sequential or chain-like manner. This pairing amplifies the notion of continuous and orderly transfer, illustrating a typical Chinese word-formation process where characters with related meanings are joined to express a nuanced, cohesive concept.
