About

The word 胜任 is formed through the conceptual blending of its two component characters: 胜, which carries the core meaning of "to bear" or "to be up to (a task)", and 任, which means "a duty" or "responsibility". It is not a simple sum of meanings but rather a directed relationship, where the capacity or strength denoted by 胜 is specifically applied to and successfully meets the demands of the obligation denoted by 任, thereby creating the unified concept of "to be competent" or "to be qualified for a post".
