The Chinese word 明显 (míngxiǎn) is composed of two characters: 明 (míng) and 显 (xiǎn). The character 明 originally meant "bright" or "clear", and was often used in the sense of "to make clear" or "to clarify". The character 显 originally meant "to appear" or "to become visible", and was often used in the sense of "to make known" or "to reveal". When these two characters are combined, they form the word 明显, which literally means "brightly visible" or "clearly apparent". In modern Chinese, 明显 is used to mean "obvious", "clear", or "evident". It can also be used to mean "prominent" or "conspicuous".
