About

The Chinese word "选出" is formed by combining the character "选", which conveys the idea of choosing or selecting, with the character "出", which signifies exiting, emerging, or coming out. Together, they create a compound where the action of selecting is directed towards bringing something out from a group or set, effectively meaning to pick out or elect. This formation relies on the conceptual blend where the first character denotes the process and the second character indicates the resultant action or outcome, seamlessly merging to express the complete idea of selecting something so that it stands out or is extracted.
