The Chinese word 技能 (jìnéng) is composed of two characters: 技 (jì) and 能 (néng). 技 originally meant "skill" or "technique", and was often used in the context of martial arts or acrobatics. 能, on the other hand, meant "ability" or "capability". When combined, the two characters form the word 技能, which refers to a person's practical skills or abilities in a particular field or area of expertise. In modern Chinese, 技能 is commonly used to describe the skills and knowledge required for a specific job or profession. For example, someone might say that they have the 技能 (jìnéng) to be a doctor or a teacher.
