The Chinese word 战士 (zhànshì) is composed of two characters: 战 (zhàn), meaning "war" or "battle," and 士 (shì), meaning "soldier" or "warrior." The word 战士 is therefore literally translated as "war soldier" or "battle warrior." It is used to refer to a person who fights in a war or battle, and can be used in both a general sense (e.g., "the soldiers fought bravely in the war") and a specific sense (e.g., "the warrior was awarded a medal for his bravery"). The word 战士 is also used in a metaphorical sense to refer to someone who fights for a cause or ideal, such as a social justice warrior or a freedom fighter.
