The Chinese word 幸福 (xìngfú) for "happiness" is composed of two characters: 幸 (xìng) and 福 (fú). The character 幸 originally meant "to be lucky" or "to have good fortune", and was often used in the sense of "fortunately" or "luckily". The character 福 originally meant "blessings" or "good fortune", and was often used in the sense of "happiness" or "prosperity". Over time, the two characters came to be used together to express the idea of "happiness" or "good fortune". The word 幸福 is now commonly used in Chinese to express the feeling of happiness, contentment, or well-being.
