About

The Chinese word "关照" is formed by combining the characters "关" and "照", where "关" evokes the idea of connection, involvement, or protective concern, and "照" conveys illumination, attention, or careful observation. Together, they metaphorically blend to create a meaning that implies looking after or showing consideration for someone, as if shedding light on their needs while maintaining a supportive connection, often used in social contexts to express mutual care or assistance.
