The Chinese word **鱼缸 (yúgāng)**, meaning "fishbowl" or "aquarium," is a straightforward compound noun formed through semantic combination. It is composed of two meaningful characters: **鱼 (yú)**, which means "fish," and **缸 (gāng)**, which means "jar," "vase," or "pot." The word follows a common modifier-head structure in Chinese, where the first element **鱼** specifies the purpose or content, and the second element **缸** indicates the type of object, literally creating the meaning "fish-container" or "vessel for fish." This logical and transparent formation is typical of many Chinese nouns, where two independent concepts are combined to precisely name a concrete object.
