The Chinese word 本期 (běnqī) is composed of two characters: 本 (běn) and 期 (qī). The character 本 originally meant "root" or "origin", but it has also been used to mean "this" or "current". The character 期 originally meant "a period of time", but it has also been used to mean "issue" or "number". When these two characters are combined, they form the word 本期, which means "this issue" or "current issue".The word 本期 is often used in newspapers and magazines to refer to the current issue of the publication. It can also be used in other contexts to refer to the current period of time or the current situation. For example, the phrase 本期工作计划 (běnqī gōngzuò jìhuà) means "work plan for this period".The word 本期 is a common word in Chinese, and it is important for HSK learners to be familiar with its meaning and usage.
