The Chinese word 身体 (shēntǐ) for "body" is composed of two characters: 身 (shēn) and 体 (tǐ). The character 身 originally meant "person" or "body," and it is often used in compounds related to the body, such as 身高 (shēngāo, "height") and 身材 (shēncái, "figure"). The character 体 originally meant "embodiment" or "substance," and it is often used in compounds related to health and well-being, such as 健康 (jiànkāng, "health") and 体重 (tǐzhòng, "weight"). When combined, the two characters 身 and 体 form the word 身体, which refers to the physical body of a person or animal.
