Definition
会审 is a verb meaning 'to jointly review, examine, or adjudicate'. It combines 会 ('together, joint') and 审 ('examine, try'). You'll encounter it in two main contexts: (1) project or design review where multiple experts convene to approve a plan, and (2) joint trial by a collegiate court in legal settings. It's a formal, institutional word — not used in everyday conversation.
v.
