The Chinese word 收音机 (shōuyīnjī) for "radio" is a compound of three characters: 收 (shōu), meaning "to receive"; 音 (yīn), meaning "sound"; and 机 (jī), meaning "machine". The term 收音机 literally translates to "sound-receiving machine", accurately describing the function of a radio. This etymology provides a clear and concise explanation of the word's origin and meaning, making it easier for HSK learners to understand and remember.
