The Chinese word 见面 (jiànmiàn) is composed of two characters: 见 (jiàn), meaning "to see" or "to meet", and 面 (miàn), meaning "face". Together, they form the compound word 见面, which literally means "to see each other's faces". This term is commonly used in Chinese to refer to the act of meeting someone in person, either for the first time or after a period of separation. It can also be used in a more general sense to refer to the act of coming into contact with someone or something. For example, the phrase 见面礼 (jiànmiànlǐ) means "a gift given when meeting someone for the first time", and the phrase 见面会 (jiànmiànhuì) means "a meeting or gathering of people".
