意义 (yìyì) versus 意思 (yìsi):

"意义" refers to the deeper significance, importance, or implication of something. It often conveys the broader or more profound meaning behind an action, event, concept, or statement. Example: 人生的意义 (the meaning of life).

"意思" generally refers to the definition, meaning, idea, or intention conveyed by words, actions, gestures, etc. It focuses more on the literal or practical meaning of something. Example: 这个汉字的意思 (the meaning of this Chinese character).
