Definition
恩泽 literally means 'grace and moisture' — a classical Chinese term for the favor or benevolence bestowed by a superior (an emperor, a ruler, or even nature) upon those below. Historically tied to imperial patronage, it now appears in literary or formal contexts to describe kindness from a higher authority, or figuratively for natural blessings like rain. It carries a tone of gratitude and reverence, not used in casual conversation.
