The word 真正 is formed by combining two independent characters, each carrying a core meaning related to authenticity. The first character, 真, means "true", "real", or "genuine". The second, 正, means "upright", "correct", or "proper". They are placed side-by-side in a complementary relationship where 正 intensifies and qualifies 真; it’s not just "true" in a factual sense, but "true" in the sense of being correct, proper, and without flaw. Thus, the compound conveys a unified, reinforced concept of something that is authentically and unquestionably real.
