About
The word "奥斯卡" is formed through a purely phonetic process, specifically transliteration, where three Chinese characters are chosen solely for how closely their combined pronunciation approximates the sound of the English word "Oscar". Each character, 奥 (ào), 斯 (sī), and 卡 (kǎ), represents a syllable, together creating a sound sequence that mimics the original, with the established meaning of the individual characters being entirely irrelevant to the word's new function as a proper name for the Academy Awards.
