承办
chéngbàn · HSK 5
undertake
📋 承办 = 承 (undertake/bear) + 办 (handle/manage)
承 means to bear or accept responsibility; 办 means to handle or manage affairs. Together 承办 means to undertake and carry out a task, often used for organizations hosting events or executing official duties.
办 — 力 (strength) flanked by two 丶 dots
办 is the simplified form of 辦, which combined 力 (strength/effort) with 辡 (two 辛 'criminals/disputes') to mean 'to manage or handle a dispute'. The simplified shape keeps 力 in the center and reduces the surrounding element to two small dots, preserving the sense of 'doing' or 'handling' something.
