About
The word 显而易见 is formed through a classical Chinese literary device of stacking and linking parallel concepts to intensify meaning. It builds a logical, almost visual, sequence: 显 (to appear/be manifest) + 而 (and thus/so) + 易 (easy) + 见 (to see). This creates a cause-and-effect chain meaning "clearly apparent, and thus, easily seen". The four-character rhythm and the parallel structure between the two pairs (显 → 易 and 而 links the cause to the effect) create a concise, self-evident formula that feels complete and emphatic, embodying the very meaning it describes.
