It is also used as an abbreviation for 'software' in modern contexts.

象形意义 / 为何这么写 (Pictographic Meaning / Writing Rationale)

“软”是会意字，左边“车”象征交通工具，右边“欠”表示弯曲、缺乏支撑，表达车辆变形、质地不硬的含义，引申为“柔软”。'软' is an associative compound character. The left part '车' (car/wheel) suggests a vehicle, while the right part '欠' implies bending or a lack of support, indicating a vehicle being deformed or not hard, thus extended to mean 'soft'.

文言文释义 (Classical Chinese Meaning)

与现代意义相近，指不坚硬、柔和。Similar to modern meaning, refers to something not hard, gentle, or soft.

字源故事 (Origin Story)

“软”字最早来源于会意字，从“車”（车，车轮）和“欠”组合，表达车轮变软、弯曲的意思。后引申为容易变形、不坚硬。The character '软' originally comes from a compound ideogram, composed of '車' (chē, cart/wheel) and '欠' (qiàn, to yawn or lack), indicating the idea of a wheel becoming soft or bent. It later extended to mean 'easy to deform' or 'not hard'.

字形演变 (Character Evolution)

甲骨文 (Oracle Bone Script):

甲骨文中未见有“软”字，相关概念表达通常用其他字或词。 The character '软' does not appear in Oracle Bone Script; related concepts were expressed using other characters or words.

金文 (Bronze Inscription):

金文中也未见“软”字，但有“輭”一字，结构类似“車”与“欠”的组合，表示车子变软。 '软' is not found in Bronze Inscriptions, but the character '輭' appeared, a combination of '車' and '欠', representing a cart becoming soft.

小篆 (Small Seal Script):

小篆中写作“輭”，形体更圆滑，结构清晰显示“車”与“欠”的组合。 In Small Seal Script, written as '輭', the form is more rounded and clearly shows the combination of '車' and '欠'.

隶书 (Clerical Script):

隶书将“輭”结构进一步简化，笔画变粗重，线条趋于平直。 In Clerical Script, the structure of '輭' is further simplified. The strokes are thicker and lines become more straight.

楷书 (现代) (Regular Script (Modern)):

现代简化字用“软”取代了繁体“輭”，左边为“车”(簡化字为“车”)，右边为“欠”，结构简明。 In modern Regular Script, the simplified character '软' replaces the traditional '輭': the left side is '车' (simplified carriage), and the right is '欠', with a clear and concise structure.
