The Chinese word 舒适 (shūshi) for "comfort" is composed of two characters: 舒 (shū) and 适 (shì). The character 舒 originally meant "to stretch out" or "to relax", and it is often used in words related to comfort, ease, or relaxation. The character 适 originally meant "to fit" or "to be suitable", and it is often used in words related to appropriateness, convenience, or comfort. When combined, the two characters 舒 and 适 create the word 舒适, which conveys the idea of a state of physical or mental ease, relaxation, or contentment.
