About

The Chinese word **晴朗 (qínglǎng)**, meaning "clear and sunny (weather)," is a classic example of a **coordinating compound (并列式)** formed by combining two independent, semantically related characters. The first character, **晴 (qíng)**, means "clear sky" or "fine weather," while the second, **朗 (lǎng)**, means "bright," "clear," or "sonorous." Together, they create a harmonious and reinforcing meaning where both elements contribute to the overall concept of atmospheric clarity and brightness, with "晴" providing the core weather condition and "朗" intensifying the quality of that condition.
