The origin of the name

Piano mbth is a piano, and its full name should be Pianoforte, which means weak and strong. Because this instrument can emit both weak and strong sounds, it has such an extremely vivid name.

Later, perhaps for the convenience of appellation, people omitted forte, meaning strong voice, and only retained piano, meaning weak voice, which has been used ever since.

Chinese was translated into piano because after the Opium War, some foreign businessmen saw the market potential of China and exported pianos to China in large quantities, claiming that they were made of "steel", so China people began to habitually call them "pianos".
