About

The word 检察官 is formed by combining three meaningful characters: 检 (jiǎn), meaning "to inspect" or "examine"; 察 (chá), meaning "to investigate" or "scrutinize"; and 官 (guān), meaning "official". These are layered together conceptually, where the first two characters, 检 and 察, merge to create the core idea of "inspection and investigation", and this combined concept is then attached to 官, the "official" who performs this function. The result is a single, precise term for a "prosecutor", an official whose essential duty is the examination and investigation of legal matters.
