含义与用法 (Meanings & Usage)

中文核心释义 (Core Chinese Meaning): 坏,邪恶,不善,与善相对。

英文核心释义 (Core English Meaning): evil, bad, wicked, to hate; the opposite of good.

“恶”在现代汉语中常用来形容人的不良品质或行为(如“恶人”“恶行”),也可作动词表示“憎恨”(如“厌恶”)。在某些词语中也读作“wù”(如“恶心”中的“恶”读wù,意为厌恶、讨厌),需要根据具体语境辨别读音和意思。 In modern Chinese, '恶' is mostly used as an adjective describing bad or evil qualities, actions, or people (such as '恶人' – bad person). It can also be used as a verb meaning 'to hate' (e.g., in '厌恶' – to loathe). In some words, it is pronounced 'wù', for example, in '恶心' (disgusting; to feel sick), so the reading and meaning should be determined by context.

象形意义 / 为何这么写 (Pictographic Meaning / Writing Rationale)

“恶”字由“亚”和“心”组成,其中“亚”象征压抑、不正,“心”代表内心。整个字表达内心负面的感受或思想,引申为‘邪恶’‘不善’。The character '恶' is composed of '亚' on top (suggesting oppression or deviation) and '心' below (representing the heart). Together, they symbolize negative inner feelings or thoughts, and thus the character means 'evil' or 'bad'.

文言文释义 (Classical Chinese Meaning)

与现代意义相近,多指邪恶、丑陋之事,也可用作动词表示“憎恨”。Similar to modern meaning; mostly referring to evil or ugly things, and can also be a verb meaning to hate.

字源故事 (Origin Story)

“恶”最初的字形中,上面像是一个表示人的头颅和面部,下面则是“心”,表示内心。整个结构象征着人的内心或思想不正,怀有不善的念头,因此引申为“坏”“邪恶”之意。The earliest forms of '恶' showed a head or a face at the top and a 'heart' (心) at the bottom, symbolizing the emotions or intentions inside a person. The structure as a whole suggested a person harboring wrongful or evil thoughts, thus lending the character the meaning 'bad' or 'evil'.

字形演变 (Character Evolution)

甲骨文 (Oracle Bone Script):
甲骨文中“恶”尚未定型,大致有表示人的面部与“心”的组合,强调与内心有关的不善。 In Oracle Bone Script, '恶' was not yet fixed in form but included elements resembling a face and a 'heart', emphasizing inner wickedness.
金文 (Bronze Inscription):
金文中“恶”字形逐渐明晰,上半部像人的头部,下有“心”字,结构更为明确。 '恶' in Bronze Inscriptions became more distinct: the upper part looks like a head, and the lower part is the 'heart' character, clarifying the structure.
小篆 (Small Seal Script):
小篆中的“恶”字整体变得修长,部件分明,头部与“心”字分层排列。 In Small Seal Script, '恶' becomes sleeker and more orderly, with the head and heart parts distinctly layered.
隶书 (Clerical Script):
隶书阶段,“恶”字趋向扁平,线条粗细分明,结构与现代字体接近。 In Clerical Script, '恶' becomes more flattened, with clear, thick and thin strokes. Its structure approaches that of modern script.
楷书 (现代) (Regular Script (Modern)):
现代楷书中的“恶”字,上部为“亚”,下为“心”,结构规范,有分明的书写笔顺。 In modern Regular Script, '恶' is standardized—the top part is '亚', and the bottom is '心', with clear writing order.

网络参考 (Web References for "恶") ()

网络内容摘要 (Web Content Summary):

的核心含义是内心无法接受、反感,常用来表示“坏、丑陋、不善”和“仇恨”等情感。 恶 (è / wù) primarily means “to dislike, to hate, evil, wicked, bad, or hideous.” It conveys a sense of something that is unpleasant or intolerable to the mind and heart.

字形来源于篆文,上部为“亚”(早期为描摹王侯墓穴形状),下部为“心”。整体表达内心不如愿、无法接受之意。 The character combines “亚” (originally representing a royal tomb in ancient scripts) above “心” (heart), reflecting a heart that is not satisfied or turns away in dislike.

  • 简化和读音:简体字“恶”源于繁体字“惡”,“亚”代替“亞”。其读音有两种:è(如 “恶人”,evil person),(如 “恶心”,to loathe)。 Simplification and Pronunciation: “恶” is the simplified form of the traditional “惡”; “亚” replaces the original “亞.” It has two main pronunciations: è (evil, cruel) and (to detest, loathe).

  • 易混淆点:“恶” 和 “乐(lè, yuè)”外形相似,注意区分。不同读音时含义相差较大。 Common Confusion: “恶” looks similar to “乐 (lè, yuè, meaning happy or music)” but is different in both meaning and pronunciation.

  • 常见词语/成语: 如“善恶” (good and evil), “罪恶” (crime/evil), “恶意” (malicious intent)。 Common Words/Idioms: E.g., “善恶” (good and evil), “罪恶” (crime/evil), “恶意” (malicious intent).

恶这个字, 甲骨文 与 金文 中没有,到了 楚系简帛 时才有出现,大概是春秋战国时候。 这个字倒是不复杂。上面为"亚",下面为"心"。亚是对古代墓穴的描摹。 不过,这里要注意的是,这不是指普通的墓穴,而是指王侯的墓穴。
