About
The word "担任" is formed by combining the character "担", which originally depicts carrying a burden on a shoulder pole and thus conveys the idea of bearing or undertaking, with the character "任", which signifies duty, appointment, or responsibility. Together, they create a compound where the sense of actively carrying a burden merges with the concept of an assigned role, metaphorically representing the act of assuming and fulfilling a specific position or task.
