网络内容摘要 (Web Content Summary):

1. 核心含义与象形起源： “虐”字本意为用暴力伤害、残害他人。在甲骨文中，上部是大张口的老虎，下部是被伤害的人，整体象形为“猛虎残噬活人”。金文和篆文中，这一画面被进一步强化——“人”被置于虎爪或虎口下，强调了残暴和虐待的含义。 1. Core meaning & pictographic origin: The character “虐” originally means to harm or torment others violently. In oracle bone script, its shape depicts a tiger with its mouth wide open and a person beneath, symbolizing a tiger brutally attacking a human. Later script forms (bronze and seal script) emphasize this by showing the person under the tiger’s claws or mouth, highlighting cruelty.

2. 特别用法与相关词汇： “虐”常用于描述残暴、残忍的行为。常见搭配有“虐待”（to abuse, maltreat），以及成语“惨无人道，惨遭毒虐”等。应注意，现代汉语中“虐”常用于描述精神或肉体上的折磨。与“虐”字易混淆的有“虚”（xū，empty, false）等字。 2. Notable usages & related words: “虐” is often used to describe acts of cruelty or abuse, as in “虐待” (to abuse) and idioms like “惨遭毒虐” (to suffer cruel abuse). In modern Chinese, it refers to both physical and psychological torment. Be careful not to confuse it with lookalike characters such as “虚” (xū, meaning empty or false).
