About

The word 土地 is formed through the direct and logical combination of two meaningful characters: 土 (tǔ), which represents "soil" or "earth" as a material, and 地 (dì), which means "ground" or "land" as a space or territory. By placing them together, the concept synthesizes and expands from the basic substance (soil) to the broader, more conceptual entity (land), effectively creating a compound that encompasses the full idea of "land" or "territory" in its physical and abstract sense.
