The Chinese word 月亮 (yuèliàng) for "moon" is a compound of two characters: 月 (yuè) and 亮 (liàng). The character 月 originally meant "month" and was used to represent the moon because the lunar cycle was used to track time. The character 亮 originally meant "bright" and was added to 月 to emphasize the moon's brightness. Together, the two characters 月亮 form a compound that means "bright moon".
