The Chinese word 下班 (xiàbān) is a compound word consisting of two characters: 下 (xià) and 班 (bān). The character 下 (xià) means "down" or "below", while the character 班 (bān) means "shift" or "work period". Together, the two characters 下班 (xiàbān) literally mean "to go down from work" or "to get off work". This term is commonly used in Chinese to refer to the end of the workday or the time when employees leave their workplace. It is often used in sentences such as 我下班了 (wǒ xiàbān le), which means "I'm off work" or "I've finished work".
