About

The word 铃声 is formed by combining two meaningful characters: 铃, which means "bell", and 声, which means "sound". It is constructed through direct semantic combination, where the first character specifies the source or type, and the second character specifies the phenomenon itself. Together, they create a single, compound concept that literally and intuitively means "the sound of a bell".
