The Chinese word "签字" is composed of two characters: "签" and "字". The character "签" originally meant "a piece of wood used for divination or as a tally". In modern Chinese, it is used as a verb meaning "to sign" or "to put one's signature on something". The character "字" originally meant "a written character" or "a word". In modern Chinese, it is used as a noun meaning "a character" or "a word", or as a verb meaning "to write".The word "签字" is therefore a compound word that literally means "to put one's signature on something". It is used in a variety of contexts, including signing a contract, signing a letter, or signing a check.
