About
The word 保管 is formed by combining two independent characters, each contributing its core meaning to create a new, unified concept. The first character, 保, depicts a person (亻) embracing a child (呆), conveying the idea of protection and safekeeping. The second, 管, originally represented a bamboo flute, evolving to signify control, management, and responsibility. When joined, they merge the notions of protecting (保) and managing (管) to express the comprehensive concept of taking care of something, ensuring its safety and proper supervision.
