About

The Chinese word "达拉斯" is formed by phonetic transliteration, where each character is chosen solely for its sound to approximate the English name "Dallas": "达" (dá) represents the "Da" syllable, "拉" (lā) represents the "la" syllable, and "斯" (sī) represents the "s" sound, collectively creating a pronunciation similar to the original.
