无关痛痒 (wú guān tòng yǎng)
from Chinese Word of the Day | 每日一词 · host Gallant Guo
特师的每日一词,2026年1月24日的词汇是:无 wú 关 guān 痛 tòng 痒 yǎng释义 Definition无关痛痒的意思是指事情不重要,不会引起大的影响或关注。无关痛痒 (wú guān tòng yǎng) means something is unimportant and will not cause significant impact or attention.例句 Example近期《看天下》中,有篇标题为《韩国想把脱发治疗纳入医保》的文章,作者徐欣萌是这样用这个词的:「除了脱发治疗药物,李在明还建议将减肥药也纳入国家健康保险计划。这些看起来无关痛痒的提议,却字字句句瞄准年轻人的心。」这里说的是这些提议表面看起来不重要,但实际上很有针对性。In a recent article titled 'South Korea Wants to Include Hair Loss Treatment in Health Insurance' from Vista Magazine, author Xu Xinmeng used the term like this: 'Apart from hair loss medication, Lee Jae-myung also suggested including weight-loss drugs in the national health insurance plan. These proposals, which seem 无关痛痒 on the surface, are actually precisely targeted at the concerns of young people.' Here, it means the proposals appear insignificant but are actually very targeted.你知道吗? Did You Know?无关痛痒常用来形容那些看似不重要、不会引起强烈反应的事情。类似的词还有“无关紧要”,但无关痛痒更强调对个人感受的影响很小。这个词来源于身体感觉,痛和痒都是轻微的不适,但如果不关自己的事,就不会觉得痛或痒。比如,公司调整食堂菜单,对高层来说可能无关痛痒,但对员工影响很大。无关痛痒 (wú guān tòng yǎng) is often used to describe things that seem unimportant and won't provoke a strong reaction. A similar term is 无关紧要 (wú guān jǐn yào), but 无关痛痒 (wú guān tòng yǎng) emphasizes a very small impact on personal feelings. The term originates from physical sensations; 痛 (tòng) and 痒 (yǎng) are both minor discomforts, but if something doesn't concern you, you won't feel the pain or itch. For example, a company adjusting the cafeteria menu might be 无关痛痒 (wú guān tòng yǎng) for senior management, but it has a significant impact on employees.
