The Chinese character 齐 (qí) is composed of two parts: the radical 禾 (hé), which represents grain or crops, and the phonetic component 齊 (qí), which is a variant of the character 齊 (qí), meaning "even" or "uniform." The original meaning of 齐 was "to cut grain evenly," which is related to its use in the phrase 齐头并进 (qítóubìngjìn), meaning "to advance together in step." Over time, the meaning of 齐 expanded to include the ideas of "orderly," "neat," and "harmonious." In modern Chinese, 齐 is commonly used in words such as 齐心协力 (qíxīnxīélì), meaning "to work together with one heart," and 整齐划一 (zhěngqíhuàyī), meaning "uniform and consistent."
