Definition
行经 has two distinct verb senses. The first is a literary or formal verb meaning 'to pass by a place' or 'to travel through', often used in writing about routes or journeys. The second is a formal or clinical euphemism for 'to menstruate'; in everyday speech, 来月经 (lái yuèjīng) is more common. The context usually makes the meaning clear.
