About

The word 歌词 is formed by combining two independent concepts: 歌 (gē), meaning "song", and 词 (cí), meaning "words" or "written text". By placing them together, the compound creates a new, specific meaning that is more than the sum of its parts, the "words of a song", or lyrics. It is a direct conceptual fusion where the first element defines the domain (song) and the second specifies the component within that domain (the text).
