How it's used
Refers specifically to small-sized promotional or trial versions of products, particularly in retail settings like cosmetics or perfume counters. It is almost exclusively used in a commercial context rather than for general examples or models of abstract concepts. When people talk about a sample of a material or a prototype, they often use different terms like 樣本.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with the verb 辦, which means to handle, manage, or organize. The noun usage for a product sample is very specific to retail and marketing contexts.
