About
The word 谨慎 is formed by combining two separate characters, 谨 and 慎, which both individually carry the core meaning of "careful" or "cautious". They are brought together in a parallel structure where each character reinforces and deepens the meaning of the other, creating a single, more nuanced concept of "prudence" or "circumspection" that is richer and more emphatic than either character alone.
