轻 — vehicle radical 车 + 巠 (phonetic)
轻 is a semantic-phonetic compound. The left side 车 (vehicle) gives the meaning, originally referring to a light, swift chariot. The right side 巠 supplies the sound. Over time the meaning broadened from 'light cart' to 'light in weight' and figuratively 'slight' or 'gentle'.
