Irreducible Oneness of Being

A man who is translating ‘I Am’ into Chinese, asks about how ‘being’ is a non-compound word. Rupert says that being is one, so it is not composed of two things. Ideally, if you want to find a word that evokes what it is, you want to somehow use the word to directly indicate its meaning. If it were two things, it could be reduced further. One thing cannot be further reduced. The irreducible oneness of being. Whatever word(s) is used should evoke, not describe.
