The Chinese word 举行 (juxing) is composed of two characters: 举 (ju) and 行 (xing). The character 举 originally meant "to lift up" or "to raise," and was often used in the context of offering sacrifices or making offerings to the gods. Over time, it came to be used more broadly to mean "to carry out" or "to undertake." The character 行 originally meant "to go" or "to walk," but it also had the extended meaning of "to do" or "to act." When these two characters are combined, they form the word 举行, which means "to hold" or "to organize." This word is often used in the context of events or activities, such as meetings, conferences, or ceremonies.
