Etymology

This is a Chinese declarative phrase. 显示 means "to show/reveal", dating back to ancient Chinese texts referring to making something visible; 洞穴 is a compound word formed by the synonymous characters 洞 and 穴, both meaning hollow space underground, used since Old Chinese to describe natural underground openings.

Memory Aid

Break the phrase into parts: 显示 (xiǎn shì) = to show, 一个 (yī gè) = a, 洞穴 (dòng xué) = cave — put together, it forms the full statement "shows/reveals a cave".
