病

• 拼音: bìng
• 汉字拆解: 病 = 疒 (illness radical, person on a bed) + 丙 (phonetic component)

含义

Illness; disease; to be sick. Used both as a noun for sickness and as a verb meaning to fall ill.

As a noun, 病 refers to illness or disease in general. As a verb, it describes the state of being sick. Commonly appears in compounds like 生病 (to fall ill), 病人 (patient), and 病了 (got sick). In everyday conversation, 生病 is more natural than using 病 alone as a verb.
