The Chinese word 西南 (xī nán) means "southwest". It is composed of two characters: 西 (xī), which means "west", and 南 (nán), which means "south". The word 西南 is used to refer to the region of China that is located in the southwest of the country. This region includes the provinces of Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Tibet. The word 西南 can also be used to refer to the direction of southwest. For example, if you are facing north, the direction of southwest would be to your left and slightly behind you.
