Definition
原素 is a technical term used in mathematics, logic, and philosophy, often attributively, to describe something that is primitive, original, or fundamental. It overlaps with 元素 (yuán sù, 'element') but carries a nuance of 'basic building block' in formal systems. In everyday language, 元素 is far more common; 原素 is rare outside specialist fields.
