About
The Chinese word "救护车" (ambulance) is formed by combining three distinct characters: 救, meaning "to rescue" or "save"; 护, meaning "to protect" or "guard"; and 车, meaning "vehicle" or "car". Together, the first two characters, 救护, create a compound concept of providing emergency aid and safeguarding, which then is directly linked to 车 to indicate a specialized vehicle used for this life-saving purpose, thus intuitively representing a vehicle dedicated to rescuing and protecting individuals in medical crises.
