About

The word "非凡" is formed by directly combining the character "非", meaning "not" or "non-", with the character "凡", meaning "ordinary" or "common". This juxtaposition creates a literal meaning of "not ordinary", which defines the word as "extraordinary" or "outstanding". The formation relies on negation to modify the base concept, resulting in a straightforward compound word.
