The Chinese word 点头 (tóu diǎn) literally means "head nod" and is used to express agreement, approval, or understanding. It is composed of two characters: 头 (tóu), meaning "head," and 点 (diǎn), meaning "to nod." The character 点 can also be used as a verb meaning "to dot" or "to mark," and in the context of 点头, it refers to the action of nodding one's head. The combination of these two characters creates a vivid and intuitive representation of the physical gesture of nodding, making it easy for learners to grasp its meaning.
