Word origin

The word 注入 (zhùrù, "pour into") joins 注 (zhù, "pour") and 入 (rù, "enter"), so its literal structure presents an outside input moving inward.

Usage tips

  • Its formal tone lets it appear in business, news, and technical contexts, not only medical contexts, so English speakers should not limit it to medicine.
