About

The Chinese word "伏特" is formed through phonetic transliteration, where the characters are selected solely for their sound to approximate the English word "volt". The character "伏" (fú) mimics the "vo" syllable, and "特" (tè) mimics the "lt" syllable, resulting in a combined pronunciation that closely matches the original term.
