The Chinese word 牛奶 (niúnǎi) for "milk" is composed of two characters: 牛 (niú), meaning "cow", and 奶 (nǎi), meaning "liquid". The character 牛 is a pictograph depicting a cow's head, while the character 奶 is a phonetic compound, with the radical 氵(shuǐ), meaning "water", and the phonetic component 乃 (nǎi). The combination of these two characters creates the word 牛奶, which literally means "cow's liquid" or "cow's milk". This etymology reflects the fact that, in traditional Chinese culture, milk was primarily obtained from cows.
