The Chinese name 西班牙 (xībānyá, "Spain") is a sound-based rendering of the Spanish name España, so its characters do not describe the country.

The form 西班牙 (xībānyá, "Spain") refers to the country, but 西班牙语 (xībānyǔ, "Spanish") refers to the language, a useful distinction when talking about travel and language learning.
