About

The Chinese word 套装 is a compound noun formed by combining two independent characters: 套 (tào), which means "set" or "suite", and 装 (zhuāng), which means "clothing" or "attire". Together, they create a meaning where 套 modifies 装, specifying that the clothing is not a single item but a coordinated, matching ensemble, such as a suit, a two-piece set, or a formal outfit designed to be worn together. This follows the common structural pattern in Mandarin where two meaningful characters are combined to produce a new, more specific concept, in this case, denoting a complete and harmonized set of garments.
