The Chinese word 原告 (yuángào) for "plaintiff" is composed of two characters: 原 (yuán) and 告 (gào). The character 原 originally meant "beginning" or "source", but in legal contexts, it has come to mean "plaintiff" or "claimant". The character 告 means "to tell" or "to inform", and in legal contexts, it refers to the act of bringing a lawsuit or making a complaint. Thus, the compound word 原告 literally means "the one who initiates a lawsuit" or "the one who makes a complaint".
