人权
Definition
The term "人权" refers to human rights, which are the basic rights and freedoms that all individuals are entitled to, regardless of their nationality, race, gender, or other characteristics.
Analogy
Human rights can be compared to a universal menu in a restaurant. Just like how everyone has the right to choose what they want to eat from the menu without discrimination, human rights ensure that every person has certain fundamental freedoms and protections.
