含义与用法 (Meanings & Usage)
中文核心释义 (Core Chinese Meaning): 用水清除污垢、杂质等，即“洗涤”。
英文核心释义 (Core English Meaning): to wash; to clean with water; to rinse
“洗”多用于表达用水清洁身体、衣物、物品等，如“洗手”、“洗衣服”，也可引申为去除不良影响，如“洗心革面”。现代常与“澡”、“净”等词搭配。
'洗' is mainly used to indicate cleaning the body, clothes, or objects with water, e.g., '洗手' (wash hands), '洗衣服' (wash clothes). It can also be used metaphorically to mean removing bad influences, e.g., '洗心革面' (to turn over a new leaf). Commonly collocates with words like '澡' (bath), '净' (clean).
象形意义 / 为何这么写 (Pictographic Meaning / Writing Rationale)
“洗”字由‘氵’和‘先’组成。‘氵’表示与水相关，‘先’作声旁，也含有用水先行、优先清洁的含义，整体表达用水把东西先行清理干净，是会意兼形声字。'洗' consists of '氵' (the water radical) indicating relation to water, and '先' as the phonetic component, which also carries the idea of 'doing something first.' Together, the character means 'to wash' or 'to clean with water.' It is a phono-semantic compound character.
文言文释义 (Classical Chinese Meaning)
