休克

• 拼音: xiū kè
• 汉字拆解: 休 = 人 + 木 (rest/stop); 克 = 十 + 兄 (overcome/control) — phonetic loan from English 'shock'

含义

To go into shock; a severe medical emergency characterised by collapse of circulation and loss of consciousness.

Primarily a medical term for circulatory shock. Also used colloquially and hyperbolically to describe being overwhelmed or stunned, though formal usage stays within clinical contexts.

用法指南

语境: medical, emergency, clinical

语气: serious

正确说法

• 患者血压骤降，已出现早期休克症状，须立即转入重症监护病房进行救治。(The patient's blood pressure dropped sharply and early shock symptoms appeared; immediate transfer to intensive care was required.)
• 失血过多会导致休克，因此外伤处理中止血是最优先的急救步骤。(Excessive blood loss can cause shock; therefore stopping bleeding is the highest-priority step in first-aid for external injuries.)

错误说法

• 我被这个价格休克了 — using 休克 hyperbolically for being surprised by a price is too informal and trivialises a serious medical term; use 吓了一跳 or 目瞪口呆 instead
