The Chinese word 商品 (shāngpǐn) for "commodity" is composed of two characters: 商 (shāng) and 品 (pǐn). The character 商 originally meant "to trade" or "to barter", and it is often used in words related to commerce and business. The character 品 originally meant "a class" or "a category", and it is often used in words related to quality or grade. When these two characters are combined, they form the word 商品, which refers to a tangible good that is bought and sold in a market.
