痕迹

• 병음: hén jì
• 한자 분석: 痕 = 疒 (illness/wound radical) + 艮 (phonetic — firm, stop) — mark of a wound or damage; 迹 = 辶 (movement) + 亦 (phonetic) — traces left by movement

뜻

흔적; 자취

痕迹 can refer to physical marks (scratches, bloodstains, scars, tyre tracks) or abstract traces (emotional wounds, signs of historical influence, stylistic fingerprints). 留下痕迹 (to leave traces) is a frequent collocation. In literary prose, 痕迹 often carries a melancholy or reflective tone, evoking the passage of time. In forensics, it denotes material evidence at a crime scene.
