The Chinese word 入口 means “entrance” or “entryway”. It is commonly used to refer to the entrance of a building, a park, or any other place where people can enter. For example, when you visit a museum or a shopping mall in China, you will often see signs that say “入口” to indicate where the entrance is located. In addition, the word can also be used in a figurative sense to refer to the beginning or starting point of something, such as the “entry point” of a discussion or a project.
