The Chinese word 层次 (céngcì) is composed of two characters: 层 (céng) and 次 (cì). The character 层 originally meant "a layer" or "a level", and it is often used to refer to the different levels of something, such as the layers of a cake or the levels of a building. The character 次 originally meant "a time" or "an occasion", and it is often used to refer to the order of something, such as the first time or the second time. When these two characters are combined, they form the word 层次, which means "level" or "hierarchy". This word can be used to refer to the different levels of something, such as the levels of government or the levels of education. It can also be used to refer to the hierarchy of something, such as the hierarchy of a company or the hierarchy of a social group.
