About
The character "纺" is etymologically derived from its traditional form "紡", which combines the semantic component "糸", indicating silk or thread, with the phonetic component "方". This structure logically points to its core meaning of twisting or drawing out fibers into thread, specifically through the act of spinning. Initially representing the manual process of spinning with a spindle, the character's application broadened alongside technological advancements to encompass all methods of thread and yarn production, including industrial machinery. While its fundamental association with the creation of thread has remained constant, the scope of "纺" expanded to represent the wider textile industry and the concept of weaving, reflecting the integration of spinning as the foundational stage in fabric manufacture.
