The Chinese word 关机 (guān jī) literally means "close machine" and is used to refer to the action of turning off a computer or other electronic device. The word is composed of two characters: 关 (guān), which means "to close" or "to shut", and 机 (jī), which means "machine" or "device". The term 关机 is commonly used in both spoken and written Chinese, and is understood by people of all ages and backgrounds. It is also used in technical contexts, such as in computer manuals and user guides.
