作製
さくせい · sakusei · JLPT N2 · noun
industry
🏭 作 (make) + 製 (manufacture): two 'make' characters stacked = sakusei, to manufacture
作 means make or work, and 製 means produce or manufacture. Stacking them gives the formal word for making goods, as in 作製する, to manufacture or produce.
作 — person radical 亻 + 乍
作 combines the person radical 亻 with 乍, which originally depicted a sudden action or making something. The character means 'to do, make, or create,' with 亻 indicating human activity and 乍 supplying the sound. Over time it broadened to cover works, deeds, and acting as something.
