Jishin
Japanese has some neat things when you break down the various elements within the language through its kanji characters. Inside every kanji component to form a word compound is a small piece to a larger puzzle.
The particular kanji compound I have always liked is the Japanese word for self-confidence – jishin (自信 /// じしん), which should not be confused with the homonym of jishin for earthquake (地震 /// じしん).
