The Chinese word 物质 (wùzhì) for "matter" is a compound of two characters: 物 (wù) and 质 (zhì). The character 物 originally meant "thing" or "object", and it is still used in this sense today. However, it can also be used in a more abstract sense to refer to "matter" or "substance". The character 质 originally meant "quality" or "nature", and it is still used in this sense today. However, it can also be used in a more abstract sense to refer to "matter" or "substance". The compound word 物质 (wùzhì) is therefore a very general term that can be used to refer to any kind of matter or substance.
