Etymology & Components

The Chinese word 推广 (tuīguǎng) is composed of two characters: 推 (tuī) and 广 (guǎng). The character 推 originally meant "to push" or "to shove", but it has also been used in a more abstract sense to mean "to promote" or "to recommend". The character 广 originally meant "wide" or "broad", but it has also been used in a more abstract sense to mean "to spread" or "to extend". When these two characters are combined, they form the word 推广, which means "to promote" or "to popularize". This word is often used in the context of marketing or advertising, but it can also be used in a more general sense to mean "to spread the word" or "to get the word out".
