About
The Chinese word "马歇尔" is formed through phonetic transliteration, where each character is chosen solely for its sound to approximate the foreign name "Marshall". The characters "马" (mǎ), "歇" (xiē), and "尔" (ěr) are used not for their literal meanings but for their pronunciations, which together mimic the syllables of the English name. This process is a common practice in Chinese for adapting foreign proper nouns, ensuring that the spoken form is recognizable while conforming to the phonological patterns of Mandarin.
