基本信息 (Basic Information)
含义与用法 (Meanings & Usage)
中文核心释义 (Core Chinese Meaning): 听见，嗅到；消息，新闻。
英文核心释义 (Core English Meaning): to hear; to smell; news; information.
“闻”作为动词时，通常表示“听到”或“嗅到”，如“闻声音”、“闻香”。作为名词常用于“新闻”、“见闻”等词语中，表示消息、信息。现代口语中单独使用“不如‘听’、‘闻到’常见”。
As a verb, '闻' normally means 'to hear' or 'to smell', such as in '闻声音' (to hear a sound) or '闻香' (to smell a fragrance). As a noun, it appears in words like '新闻' (news), '见闻' (knowledge/experience). In modern spoken Chinese, '闻' alone is less commonly used than more colloquial words like '听' (to listen) or '闻到' (to smell).
象形意义 / 为何这么写 (Pictographic Meaning / Writing Rationale)
“闻”是会意字，上部是“门”，表示门或入口，下部是“耳”，意为侧耳倾听。本意为在门外听里面的声音，引申为听、知道、消息。'闻' is an ideogrammic compound: the top part is 'door' (门) and the lower part is 'ear' (耳). Originally, it referred to listening outside the door, hence the meanings 'to hear', 'to smell', and later, 'news'.
文言文释义 (Classical Chinese Meaning)
文言文中“闻”常作“听见、得知”讲，和现代意义相近，也可指“名声、闻名”。'闻' in Classical Chinese usually means 'to hear' or 'to be informed', similar to the modern meaning. It can also refer to 'reputation' or 'being known'.

字源故事 (Origin Story)
“闻”字最早见于甲骨文。甲骨文的“闻”由一个门形和一个耳朵组成，表示人在门口侧耳倾听，引申有“听见”、“消息”的意思。后演变加入“门”旁，更突出‘通过门听’的意象。The character '闻' first appeared in oracle bone script. In its earliest forms, it combined a 'door' shape and an 'ear', implying a person listening by the doorway, hence the meanings 'to hear' and 'news'. Later script variations emphasized the 'door' radical to reinforce the idea of listening through or at a door.
