The Chinese word "竞技场" (jìngjìchǎng) is a compound term formed by combining two elements: "竞技" (jìngjì), meaning "athletic competition" or "contest" (from "竞" for contend and "技" for skill), and "场" (chǎng), meaning "field," "ground," or "venue." It is a straightforward, descriptive construction where the latter character specifies the physical location or site for the activity defined by the first two characters, thus creating the complete meaning of "competition ground" or "arena." This follows a common grammatical pattern in Chinese where a modifier (竞技) is placed before a core noun (场) to form a precise, functional compound word.
