tangible
의미: Able to be perceived by touch; concrete, real, and definite rather than abstract or imaginary.
Tangible has both a literal sense (capable of being touched) and a more common figurative sense (real, concrete, measurable). It is the opposite of 'intangible.' In business, 'tangible assets' are physical items like property and equipment. In general use, 'tangible results,' 'tangible progress,' and 'tangible benefits' describe outcomes that are clear and measurable. Common collocations include 'tangible evidence,' 'tangible results,' 'tangible benefits,' and 'tangible assets.'
