Definition of soulless

soullessadjective

vô hồn

/ˈsəʊlləs//ˈsəʊlləs/

"Soulless" traces its roots back to the Old English word "sāwol," meaning "soul." The prefix "un-" was added to create "unsāwol," meaning "without a soul." This eventually evolved into "soulless," signifying a lack of a soul, spirit, or emotion. The term implies a state of being devoid of warmth, compassion, or humanity. Its origin reflects the ancient belief in the soul as the essence of a living being, and the word's use today continues to evoke this sense of absence or emptiness.
