Étymologie et composants

The Chinese word 宽广 (kuān guǎng) is composed of two characters, 宽 (kuān) and 广 (guǎng). The character 宽 originally meant "wide" or "spacious", and was often used to describe the width of a river or the size of a room. Over time, it also came to be used in a more abstract sense, to describe someone who is generous or tolerant. The character 广 originally meant "wide" or "extensive", and was often used to describe the vastness of the sky or the ocean. It also came to be used in a more abstract sense, to describe someone who is knowledgeable or experienced.When the two characters are combined to form 宽广, the meaning is further extended to include the idea of "broad-mindedness" or "open-mindedness". This is because someone who is both 宽 and 广 is able to see the world from a wider perspective and is not limited by narrow-minded views. The word 宽广 can also be used to describe something that is physically large or spacious, such as a room or a building.In modern Chinese, 宽广 is often used to describe someone who is generous, tolerant, and open-minded. It is also used to describe something that is physically large or spacious.
