Definition
信赖 (xìnlài) means 'to trust' with a strong sense of reliance and confidence, often built over time. It is deeper and more formal than 相信 (xiāngxìn 'to believe') and 信任 (xìnrèn 'to trust'), implying you can depend on the person or thing. 信 (xìn) as a verb is simpler and more casual, like 'trust what someone says'.
