About

The word "海伦" is formed through phonetic transliteration, specifically to represent the foreign name "Helen" in Chinese. The character "海" (hǎi) is chosen for its sound, which approximates the first syllable "He", and "伦" (lún) is selected for its sound, approximating the second syllable "len", resulting in a combined term that mimics the pronunciation of the original name.
