Etymology & Components

The Chinese word 优惠 (yōuhuì) is composed of two characters: 优 (yōu) and 惠 (huì). 优 originally meant "good" or "excellent," but in modern Chinese, it is often used to mean "preferential" or "favorable." 惠 originally meant "to give" or "to bestow," but in modern Chinese, it is often used to mean "benefit" or "favor." Thus, the word 优惠 can be understood as "giving preferential treatment" or "providing benefits." It is often used in the context of discounts, promotions, or other special offers.
