The kanji 軽軽 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字). The left side is the radical 車 (くるま - kuruma), meaning "vehicle" or "wheel". The right side is 巠 which gives the phonetic component, indicating the pronunciation. Therefore, the original meaning associated with 軽軽 related to vehicles, initially referring to light chariots or carriages. Over time, the meaning expanded to encompass the broader concepts of "lightness" and "easiness."
