思爱普

SAP (Systeme, Anwendungen und Produkte in der Datenverarbeitung) is phonetically rendered as 思爱普 (Sī ài pǔ) in Chinese. 思 means 'to think', 爱 means 'love', and 普 means 'universal/widespread'. The resulting meaning 'think, love, universalize' gives the German enterprise software company an unexpectedly warm, humanistic name.
