The word 前进 (qiánjìn) is formed by combining two independent, meaningful characters: 前, which means "front" or "forward", and 进, which means "to advance" or "to enter". Their combination is conceptually logical, where 前 specifies the directional aspect (toward the front) and 进 provides the core action of moving or progressing. Together, they create a new, compound idea of "to advance forward" or "to go ahead", where the meaning of the whole is a direct synthesis of the meanings of its parts.
