Etymology & Components

The Chinese word 听力 (tīnglì) is composed of two characters: 听 (tīng) and 力 (lì). The character 听 means "to listen" or "to hear", and it is often used in the context of listening to music or to someone speaking. The character 力 means "strength" or "power", and it is often used in the context of physical strength or the ability to do something. When these two characters are combined, they form the word 听力, which means "listening comprehension" or "the ability to listen and understand". This word is often used in the context of language learning, and it is an important skill for anyone who wants to learn a new language.
