The Chinese word 办理 (bànlǐ), meaning "to handle" or "to conduct," is a compound verb formed through the common morphological process of combining two synonymous or semantically related characters. The first character, 办 (bàn), originally signifies "to do" or "to handle," while the second, 理 (lǐ), carries the meaning of "to manage" or "to put in order." Their combination creates a single, cohesive term where the meanings reinforce each other, resulting in a word that specifically denotes the handling of formalities, procedures, or official business, thus gaining a more precise and nuanced meaning than either character might convey alone.
