Character Story & Explanation
Excavated from ancient texts, 懫 (zhí) reveals a heart filled with fury. Its radical 忄 (heart) combined with 質 (substance) suggests an anger so deep it becomes a core trait. Rarely used today, it appears in classical works to describe overwhelming rage, often in moral contexts warning against unchecked emotion.
