About
The character 轿 is a phono-semantic compound, with its traditional form 軎 combining the vehicle radical 車 for meaning and the component 喬 for sound. In its simplified structure, it uses the vehicle radical 车 on the left to indicate a means of transport, while 乔 on the right provides the pronunciation. Originally, it referred exclusively to a sedan chair, a covered litter carried on poles by porters, used by officials and the wealthy. With technological progress, its meaning extended to modern enclosed passenger vehicles, particularly standard automobiles or sedans.
