About
The character "惰", denoting laziness or indolence, structurally combines the heart-mind radical "忄" on the left, which associates the term with internal disposition or attitude, with the component "隋" on the right, functioning phonetically but also historically linked to notions of deterioration or neglect, thereby semantically reinforcing a sense of decline in diligence. Etymologically, this formation suggests a mental leaning toward sluggishness or a falling away from active effort, with the core meaning remaining consistently focused on laziness across periods, though classical texts frequently imbued it with moral dimensions, highlighting failures in diligence or proper conduct. Its graphical form has remained unchanged, without a distinct simplified variant, preserving the original composition in modern usage.
