About

The Chinese word "怪人" is formed by simply joining two independent characters: "怪", which conveys the idea of something being strange or unusual, and "人", which means person. This combination directly merges these concepts to create a new term that refers to a strange or eccentric individual, reflecting a common Chinese practice where meaningful units are combined to form compound words that intuitively express a unified idea.
