Here's the breakdown of 経験 (keiken):

Kanji: 経 (pass through) + 験 (test, verify)
Reading: けいけん
Meaning: experience

The kanji 経 alone means "pass through" or "elapse," and 験 means "test" or "effect." Together they paint the picture of knowledge gained by passing through trials — experience!

Would you like me to break down the individual kanji components further?
