The Chinese word 收取 (shōuqǔ) is composed of two characters: 收 (shōu) and 取 (qǔ). The character 收 originally meant "to gather" or "to harvest," and it is often used in the context of collecting or receiving something. The character 取 means "to take" or "to obtain," and it is often used in the context of acquiring or choosing something. When these two characters are combined, they form the word 收取, which means "to collect" or "to charge a fee." This word is commonly used in a variety of contexts, such as collecting taxes, charging for goods or services, or receiving a payment.
