The Chinese word 吵架 (chǎojià) for "to quarrel" or "to argue" is composed of two characters: 吵 (chǎo) and 架 (jià). The character 吵 originally meant "to make a noise" or "to clamor", and it is often used to describe the sound of people arguing or fighting. The character 架 originally meant "a frame" or "a structure", but it can also be used to refer to a "dispute" or "a quarrel". When these two characters are combined, they create the word 吵架, which specifically refers to the act of arguing or quarreling. It is important to note that the word 吵架 is not limited to verbal arguments, but can also refer to physical altercations.
