About

The Chinese word "爱德华" is formed by phonetically transliterating the English name "Edward", using the character "爱" (ài) to approximate the "Ed" sound, "德" (dé) for "ward", and "华" (huá) to complete the phonetic match, with each character chosen primarily for its sound rather than its semantic meaning.
