The Chinese word 西部 (xī bù) for "west" is composed of two characters: 西 (xī) and 部 (bù). The character 西 originally meant "evening" or "sunset" and was used to refer to the direction of the setting sun, which is in the west. Over time, the meaning of 西 expanded to include the entire western region of China. The character 部 (bù) means "part" or "section" and is used to indicate a specific region or area. When combined, 西部 (xī bù) literally means "western part" or "western region" and is used to refer to the western part of China.
