Étymologie et composants

The Chinese word 疼痛 (tòngtòng) for "pain" is composed of two characters: 痛 (tòng), meaning "painful" or "aching", and 疼 (téng), which also means "pain" or "ache". The character 痛 is a pictograph depicting a person with a hand over their heart, indicating pain or discomfort. The character 疼, on the other hand, is a phonetic compound, combining the sound component 疼 (téng) with the radical 心 (xīn), which represents the heart. Together, the two characters 痛 and 疼 form the word 疼痛, which refers to physical or emotional pain or discomfort.
