乏 🔊

网络内容摘要 (Web Content Summary):

核心含义：“乏”是表示“缺少、不足”的汉字，如“匮乏”（insufficient, lacking）等词语常用表示资源、精力等不够。 Core Meaning: The character “乏” means “to lack” or “be insufficient.” It is often seen in words like “匮乏” (insufficient, lacking), used for resources, energy, etc.

象形起源或文化背景：有学者认为“乏”字的造型与古代射箭比赛有关，指赛事中负责计箭中靶数的人用某种装置遮挡身体防止中箭。这一说法认为“乏”与“正”相对，“正”为箭靶受箭，“乏”为遮挡，构形上也反映了这一点（引自《文字析义》）。 Etymological/Cultural Background: Some scholars propose that the form of “乏” relates to ancient archery contests. It may depict the person announcing the number of arrows hitting the target, using a shield to protect themselves from stray arrows. In this interpretation, “正” (target) receives arrows, while “乏” blocks them, thus “乏” is visually and conceptually opposite to “正” (reference: Wenzi Xiyi).

• 常用词语：如“疲乏”（fatigued, tired）、“匮乏”（insufficient, lacking）、“乏力”（weak, powerless）。 Common Words: Examples include “疲乏” (fatigued/tired), “匮乏” (lacking/insufficient), and “乏力” (powerless, weak).

• 易混淆点：“乏”有时与“伐”（attack, cut down）形似，需注意区别。 Confusable Characters: “乏” may be visually confused with “伐” (to attack, cut down); pay attention to the differences.
