The Chinese word for "charger" is 充电器, which is composed of two characters: 充 (chōng) and 电 (diàn). The character 充 means "to fill" or "to charge", while the character 电 means "electricity". Together, these two characters form the word 充电器, which literally means "electricity filling device". This name accurately describes the function of a charger, which is to provide electricity to a device in order to recharge its battery.
