About

The word 骑马 is formed through the direct pictorial and conceptual combination of its two components: 骑, which means to ride straddling or sitting atop something, and 马, which means horse. The formation is ideographic, creating an immediate mental image of the action applied to the object, literally, "ride" + "horse", to convey the specific activity of riding a horse.
