About

The word 轻易 is formed by combining two characters whose core meanings conceptually amplify one another: 轻, which carries the sense of "light" in weight or "frivolous" in attitude, joins with 易, meaning "easy" or "simple to change". Together, they fuse into a single concept that describes an action or approach characterized by a lack of weighty consideration or serious effort, essentially, something done with casual ease or without due diligence, where the "lightness" of the approach enables the "easiness" of the action.
