The Chinese word 西瓜 (xīguā) for watermelon is composed of two characters: 西 (xī) and 瓜 (guā). The character 西 originally meant "west" and was used to refer to the Western Regions, which were located to the west of China. In ancient times, watermelons were introduced to China from the Western Regions, so they were called 西瓜, meaning "melons from the west". The character 瓜 (guā) means "melon" or "gourd". It is a pictograph that depicts a melon with a stem. The combination of 西 and 瓜 creates the word 西瓜, which specifically refers to watermelon.
