The Japanese Kanji “信頼 (しんらい – shinrai)” means faith and the kanji “信” means trust and “頼” means depend. And the following kanji words are “faith” related Kanji words.
- “信念 (しんねん – shinnen)” means firmly belief in one’s mind. The kanji “念” means sense or idea.
- “信仰 (しんこう – shinkou)” means to believe in some religion. The kanji “仰” means respect.
- “信義 (しんぎ – shingi)” means trustful right mind. The kanji “義” means correct act as a moral human.
- “背信 (はいしん – haishin)” means betrayal. The kanji “背” means back (of our body).
So all of above four Japanese words (信頼, 信念, 信仰, 信義) could be translated as faith but the following one is an opposite meaning words.
