Etymology & Components

The Chinese word 疯狂 (fēngkuáng) is composed of two characters: 疯 (fēng) and 狂 (kuáng). The character 疯 originally meant "possessed by a demon" or "insane". It is composed of the radical 疒 (chuáng), which indicates illness, and the character 痖 (fēng), which means "deaf". The character 狂 originally meant "wild" or "furious". It is composed of the radical 犬 (quǎn), which indicates a dog, and the character 亡 (wáng), which means "to die". Together, the two characters 疯 and 狂 create the word 疯狂, which means "crazy" or "insane".
