About

The word 敌人 is formed by combining two meaningful characters: 敌, which means "enemy" or "hostile", and 人, which means "person". Together, they create a direct and logical compound where the first character defines the nature or relationship, and the second specifies the entity. Thus, "敌"+"人" literally and conceptually means an "enemy person" or simply "enemy".
