班级 (bānjí)
class
The Chinese word 班级 (bānjí) is composed of two characters: 班 (bān) and 级 (jí). The character 班 originally meant "group" or "team", and was often used in military contexts. Over time, its meaning expanded to include "class" or "grade" in an educational setting. The character 级 originally meant "step" or "level", and was often used to indicate rank or status. When combined, the two characters 班级 literally mean "class group" or "grade level", and are used to refer to a specific group of students in a school or educational institution.
