单手 (dān shǒu)
one hand
双手 (liǎng shǒu)
both hands
The Chinese word 双手 (shuāngshǒu) for "both hands" is composed of two characters: 双 (shuāng) and 手 (shǒu). The character 双 originally meant "two" or "a pair", and it is often used to indicate plurality or duality. In the context of 双手, it refers to the two hands of a person. The character 手, on the other hand, simply means "hand". When these two characters are combined, they form the compound word 双手, which specifically refers to both hands. It's worth noting that 双手 is a common term used in everyday speech and writing to refer to both hands, and it is not limited to any specific context or field.
