The word 体验 (tǐyàn) is formed by conceptually combining two ideas: 体, meaning "body" or "to embody", representing physical, personal involvement, and 验, meaning "to examine" or "to verify", representing the process of testing or proving something through direct contact. Together, they create a compound where the first character provides the method (embodied, personal engagement) and the second provides the purpose (to test and thereby know), synthesizing into the core meaning of "to learn or understand through firsthand, immersive participation". It is the formation of a new, holistic concept from the merger of concrete action and reflective verification.
