態度
たいど · taido · JLPT N3 · noun
attitude
態度 = 態 state/bearing + 度 degree: the degree of your bearing toward others
態 also appears in 状態 (condition) and 形態 (form), so it means how something is. 度 means measure or degree. Together: how you hold yourself and how far you go, which is your attitude or manner.
度 — 广 (shelter) + 庶 abbreviated (phonetic)
Originally depicted a hand measuring length under a shelter, meaning 'to measure' or 'a measure/standard.' From this came extended senses like 'degree,' 'extent,' and 'to pass through' (as in passing time). The reading 'dù' means degree/measure, while 'duó' preserves the older verbal sense of measuring.
