The Chinese word "艾哈迈迪内贾德" is formed solely through phonetic transliteration, where each character is chosen based on its Mandarin pronunciation to mimic the sounds of the foreign name "Ahmadinejad", with 艾 (ài) for "A", 哈 (hā) for "ha", 迈 (mài) for "mai", 迪 (dí) for "di", 内 (nèi) for "ne", 贾 (jiǎ) for "ja", and 德 (dé) for "d", resulting in a sequential sound-based representation.
