Étymologie et composants

The Chinese word "办事" (bàn shì) is a compound word consisting of two characters: "办" (bàn) and "事" (shì). The character "办" originally meant "to distinguish" or "to separate", and later extended to mean "to manage" or "to handle". The character "事" originally meant "a thing" or "an event", and later extended to mean "an affair" or "a matter". When combined, the two characters "办事" literally mean "to handle affairs" or "to manage matters". In modern Chinese, "办事" is commonly used as a verb meaning "to do business" or "to run errands". It can also be used as a noun meaning "an office" or "a bureau".For example:- 我要去办事了。 (Wǒ yào qù bàn shì le.) - I'm going to run some errands.- 他在政府部门办事。 (Tā zài zhèngfǔ bùmén bàn shì.) - He works in a government office.
