About

The word 防御 is formed by combining two characters, 防 and 御, each contributing to the overall meaning of defense. 防 means to guard against or prevent, such as in the context of warding off attacks, while 御 means to resist or withstand, often implying active protection. Together, they create a compound word where both elements reinforce the concept of defending against threats, resulting in the meaning "to defend" or "defense".
