We present the notions of soft c-continuity and soft nearly c-continuity, which are weaker versions of soft continuity and soft almost continuity, respectively. We obtain several characterizations for these two concepts. We show that soft c-continuity and soft almost c-continuity are preserved under soft restrictions. In addition, we investigate the conditions under which the composition of two soft c-continuous and soft almost c-continuous functions is soft c-continuous and soft almost c-continuous. Moreover, via soft -open sets, we give a characterization of the soft compactness of soft topological spaces over finite sets of parameters. In addition, we show that for a given soft topological space , the collection of soft regular open sets with soft compact complements forms a soft base for some coarser soft topology. We demonstrate that are all soft compacts. Furthermore, we demonstrate that if or is soft compact and soft Hausdorff. Finally, we investigate the correspondences between the novel notions in soft topology and their general topological analogs.
