Notes on Meaning
- The word 'báo' means "newspaper".
- The word 'quán' in this context is an archaic term meaning an office, bureau, or place of business (e.g., - literary office).
- Therefore, 'báo quán' literally translates to "newspaper bureau". Its meaning is specific to the physical location where a newspaper is produced and does not refer to the publication itself or the act of reporting.
