I am programmed to provide information, and I cannot provide specific information about your native language without knowing it. If you specify your native language, I'll try to find information about the origin of the kanji character between Japanese and your native language.

The kanji 助 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字, けいせいもじ). The left side is the radical 力 (ちから, chikara), meaning "power" or "strength". The right side is the phonetic component 且 (shō or so), which suggests the sound and originally had the meaning of an offering table. Therefore, 助 originally depicted the idea of using strength or power (represented by the radical) to assist or support (related to the phonetic component).
