The Chinese word 构成 (gòuchéng) is composed of two characters: 构 (gòu) and 成 (chéng). The character 构 originally meant "to build" or "to construct", and it is often used in the context of building structures or creating something. The character 成 means "to become" or "to achieve", and it is often used to describe the completion of a task or the attainment of a goal. When these two characters are combined, they form the word 构成, which means "to constitute" or "to form". In other words, 构成 is used to describe the process of creating something or the way in which something is formed. For example, we can say 原子构成了分子 (yuánzǐ gòuchéngle fènzǐ), which means "atoms constitute molecules".
