忠诚
zhōng chéng · HSK 7
loyal
🐕 忠 = 中 center + 心 heart (heart held centered = loyal); 诚 = words 讠 made true 成
忠 stacks 中 (center) over 心 (heart): a heart kept centered, never swerving, is loyalty. 诚 joins 讠 (speech) with 成 (to complete): words you carry out are sincerity. Together: steadfast, true devotion.
