About
The word **评分 (píngfēn)** is a compound formed through the combination of two meaningful characters: **评 (píng)**, which means "to evaluate," "to judge," or "to comment," and **分 (fēn)**, which means "score," "mark," or "to assign points." Together, they create a **verb-object relationship** where the action of "evaluating" (**评**) is directly applied to its object, the "score" (**分**), resulting in the combined meaning "to rate," "to score," or "to grade." This formation is a standard and logical process in Chinese morphology, where two independent morphemes are joined to produce a new, specific concept that is semantically transparent and immediately understandable to a literate speaker.
