Étymologie et composants

The Chinese character 大 (dà) means "big" or "great", while 于 (yú) means "than". Together, 大于 (dàyú) means "greater than".The character 大 is composed of two parts: 人 (rén), which means "person", and 犬 (quǎn), which means "dog". The original meaning of 大 was "a big person", which later evolved to mean "big" or "great" in general.The character 于 is composed of two parts: 弋 (yì), which means "to shoot", and 弓 (gōng), which means "bow". The original meaning of 于 was "to shoot an arrow", which later evolved to mean "to" or "than".The combination of 大 and 于 to form 大于 is a logical extension of the meanings of the individual characters. 大 means "big" or "great", while 于 means "than". Together, 大于 means "greater than".
