The Chinese word 丈夫 (zhàngfu) is composed of two characters: 丈夫 (zhàngfū), meaning "husband" or "man". The first character, 丈 (zhàng), originally meant "to measure" or "to span", and was used to refer to a man's height or stature. The second character, 夫 (fū), originally meant "a male" or "a husband", and was often used in combination with other characters to form compound words related to men or husbands. Over time, the compound word 丈夫 came to be used specifically to refer to a man who is strong, brave, and responsible, and is often translated as "husband" or "man" in English.
