About
The Chinese word "名称" (míngchēng) is a compound noun formed by combining two semantically related characters: "名" (míng), which means "name" or "reputation", and "称" (chēng), which means "to call", "to designate", or "appellation". Together, they create a bimorphemic word where both components contribute to an overarching meaning related to naming. The formation follows a common parallel or coordinative structure in Chinese, where two characters with similar or complementary meanings are joined to express a single, more precise concept, in this case, "name", "title", or "designation". The word essentially denotes the formal term or label by which something is known or called.
