The image is a photograph of a map of the world with Chinese characters written on it. The map is displayed on a wooden wall with a black border. The text on the map is written in both Chinese characters and translates to "Special characters - compound words". The map appears to be old and worn, with some areas of the map showing signs of wear and tear. The characters are written in a traditional Chinese script and are arranged in a grid-like pattern. The background of the image is beige, and the text is black.
