About

The word 安全 is formed by combining the character 安, meaning "peace" or "safe", which pictographically represents a woman (女) under a roof (宀) to denote shelter and security, with the character 全, meaning "complete" or "whole", historically depicting a person (人) under a roof suggesting entirety; together they create the concept of complete safety or security.
