移 (yí) means 'to move, shift, or change' — it covers physical relocation (e.g., moving a chair) and abstract adjustments (e.g., changing a meeting time). Unlike 搬 (bān), which implies moving a heavy object or relocating a home with effort, 移 is more general and often used in formal/written contexts. For 'to change/alter', 移 overlaps with 改变 (gǎi biàn) but is less common in everyday speech and more about shifting position or schedule.
