In casual usage they feel like two separate concepts to me.
I think of it this way:
We put iron grills on our apartment balconies.
1. For SAFETY -- prevents the risk of people and kids falling off balconies.
2. For SECURITY -- prevents any intruder from being able to get into the house through balcony.
I am not sure these are accurate though as English is not my first language.
- elric 2y agoBoth of those concepts translate to "veiligheid" in Dutch.
- nemoniac 2y agoTsja, zekerheid is a cognate for security. "Zeker" from Latin "Sēcūrus".
- elric 2y agoI've never heard anyone use the word "zekerheid" when talking about security. Verzekering, zekering, zekeren. Sure, but those are all pretty domain specific. No one hires a "zekerheidsagent" to secure their building, or an expert in "cyber zekerheid". Ik ben daar ... vrij zeker van.
