The Chinese word 当选 (dāngxuǎn) means "to be elected" or "to win an election". It is composed of two characters: 当 (dāng), which means "to be in charge of" or "to take responsibility for", and 选 (xuǎn), which means "to choose" or "to select". Together, these two characters convey the idea of being chosen or selected to take on a particular role or position.The word 当选 is often used in the context of elections and politics, but it can also be used more broadly to refer to any situation in which someone is chosen or selected for a particular role or position. For example, it could be used to describe the process of selecting a team captain or a class president.The word 当选 is a relatively common word in Chinese, and it is used in both spoken and written language. It is also used in a variety of idioms and phrases, such as 当选人 (dāngxuǎnrén), which means "candidate", and 当选议员 (dāngxuǎnyìyuán), which means "elected representative".
