The Chinese word 卷发 (juǎnfà) is a straightforward compound noun formed by combining the adjective 卷 (juǎn), meaning "curly" or "rolled," with the noun 发 (fà), meaning "hair." It follows a common grammatical structure in Chinese known as a "modifier-head" compound, where the first character (卷) modifies or describes the type of the second character (发). Therefore, the word is constructed logically by directly linking the descriptive quality ("curly") with the object it describes ("hair"), resulting in the meaning "curly hair."
