About
The character "靴", denoting a boot, traces its origins to the traditional form "鞾", a combination of the semantic radical "革" for leather and the phonetic component "華" indicating pronunciation, thereby etymologically anchoring it to leather footwear. Its structure was later simplified to "靴", where the phonetic element was replaced by "化", a more streamlined component that preserves the sound while the leather radical continues to highlight the material traditionally associated with boots. Over time, the meaning has remained focused on this specific type of shoe that covers the foot and lower leg, reflecting its functional roots in leathercraft, and the character's evolution showcases a move toward graphical economy without altering its core lexical significance.
