放心

Étymologie et composants

The Chinese word 放心 (fàngxīn) is composed of two characters: 放 (fàng) and 心 (xīn). 放 means "to let go" or "to release", while 心 means "heart" or "mind". Together, 放心 literally means "to let go of one's heart" or "to set one's mind at ease". This phrase is often used to express a sense of relief, assurance, or peace of mind. For example, if someone is worried about an upcoming exam, they might say 放心吧，你一定会考好的 (fàngxīn ba, nǐ yīdìng huì kǎo hǎo de), which means "Don't worry, you will definitely do well on the exam". 放心 can also be used as a verb, meaning "to reassure" or "to comfort". For example, if someone is feeling stressed, you might say 放心吧，一切都会好起来的 (fàngxīn ba, yīqiè dōu huì hǎo qǐlái), which means "Don't worry, everything will be okay".
