首批

• Pinyin: shǒu pī
• Desglose de hanzi: 首 = pictograph of a head, extended to 'first, leading'; 批 = 扌 + 比 (hand + compare — to annotate/approve; extended to batch, group)

Significado

Primer lote; primera tanda; primer grupo.

A noun-functioning modifier meaning 'the first in a series of batches'. Emphasises that subsequent batches will follow. Widely used in policy, logistics, education, and commerce — e.g., 首批试点城市 (first batch of pilot cities), 首批毕业生 (first graduating cohort), 首批投放 (first batch released to market). Closely related to 首批次 (first batch/tranche — more technical) and 第一批 (same meaning, slightly more neutral).
