Die Farbe Rot symbolisiert Liebe. (The color red symbolizes love.) Aber dieses rote Herz bedeutet 'Ich liebe dich'. (But this red heart means 'I love you'.)
Both can relate to conveying something.
'Darstellen' means to represent, portray, or depict something. It's often about showing or acting something out. 'Bedeuten' is about the inherent meaning or significance. Example: 'Die Statue stellt einen König dar.' (The statue depicts a king.) 'Die Statue bedeutet Macht.' (The statue signifies power.)
Der Schauspieler stellt einen Helden dar. (The actor portrays a hero.) Seine Rolle stellt einen Wendepunkt dar. (His role represents a turning point.) Aber diese Rolle bedeutet Erfolg für ihn. (But this role means success for him.)

ریشه کلمه
The word 'bedeuten' comes from Old High German 'bi' (meaning 'by', 'around', 'concerning') and 'dūton' (meaning 'to signify', 'to declare'). The prefix 'be-' in German often indicates a thoroughness or completeness of an action, or it can be a verbal prefix that doesn't have a direct translatable meaning but modifies the verb's sense. In this case, it intensifies the idea of giving meaning.
معنای اصلی: To signify, to declare concerning something.
Germanic, Indo-Europeanبافت فرهنگی
When asking about the meaning of something, ensure your tone is genuinely inquisitive rather than demanding or accusatory. The phrase 'Was bedeutet das?' is neutral, but context and delivery matter.
In English, we use 'mean' in similar ways, like 'What does this word mean?' or 'His actions meant a lot to me.' The German 'bedeuten' covers both these uses.
