The Chinese word 支付 (zhīfù) for "pay" is composed of two characters: 支 (zhī) and 付 (fù). The character 支 originally meant "to support" or "to prop up", and was often used in the context of providing financial support or paying for something. The character 付 originally meant "to attach" or "to add", and was often used in the context of adding something to a payment or making a payment. Over time, the two characters came to be used together to form the word 支付, which specifically refers to the act of paying money or making a payment.
