About

The word 债务 (zhàiwù), meaning "debt" or "liability", is formed by combining two meaningful characters. The first character, 债 (zhài), means "debt" or "money owed". The second, 务 (wù), means "affair", "matter", or "duty". Together, they conceptually fuse to express the idea of "the matter or obligation of debt", where the whole signifies the specific affair or responsibility arising from owing something, typically money.
