The Chinese word 物品 (wùpǐn) is composed of two characters: 物 (wù) and 品 (pǐn). 物 originally meant "thing" or "object", and was often used in ancient Chinese texts to refer to material goods or possessions. 品, on the other hand, originally meant "class" or "category", and was used to distinguish between different types of things. Over time, the meaning of 物品 evolved to encompass a wider range of items, including both tangible objects and intangible concepts. Today, 物品 is commonly used to refer to any kind of item or commodity, and is often translated as "goods" or "articles" in English.
