About

焊 is a phonosemantic compound and the simplified form of 釬. It means welding or soldering. The left side is the semantic radical 火 ('fire'), reflecting the high heat required to fuse metal. The right side is the phonetic component 旱 (hàn, 'drought' or 'dry'), which gives the pronunciation. Together, fire and dryness aptly capture the conditions of welding.
