• 汉字拆解: 痒 = 疒 (illness radical — depicting a person reclining in discomfort) + 羊 (phonetic component)

含义

Itchy; to itch. Describes a skin sensation that provokes the urge to scratch, caused by irritation, allergy, insect bites, or other stimuli.

Used both physically (皮肤发痒, 蚊子叮了很痒) and figuratively. Key figurative expressions: 技痒 (itching to show off one's skills), 心痒痒 (feeling a restless longing or curiosity), 挠到痒处 (to hit the spot; to address exactly what someone wanted). 痒 often carries a sense of irresistible urge.
