About

The Chinese word "窗帘" is formed by combining two characters: "窗", which means "window", and "帘", which means "curtain". This creates a compound word where the first character specifies the location or object associated with the second, resulting in the literal meaning "window curtain". Such formations are common in Chinese, where meaningful characters are joined to convey a specific, cohesive concept, here, denoting a curtain designed for a window.
