Hidoi (Auful/Terrible)

May 29, 2017 07:18
During watching Japanese dramas or anime, you may hear the dialogue "hidoi (ひどい)."

"Hidoi" is an adjective that refers to that something is cruel or very bad.

In Buddhism, training to seek enlightenment is called "dou (道)," the literal meaning of which is "road."

Also, going off the dou is called "hidou (非道)," by attaching the negative prefix "hi (非)."

This "hidou" has gradually come to mean to go off humanity, then it has also come to mean inhumanity or a lack in common sense.

"Hidoi" is an adjective form of this "hidou."
ひどい

日本のドラマやアニメを見ていると、「ひどい」というセリフを聞くことがあるかもしれません。

「ひどい」は、何かが残酷であることや、程度が非常に悪いことを表す形容詞です。

仏教において、悟りを求めて修行することを「道(どう)」といい、そこから外れることを「非道(ひどう)」といいます。

この「非道」は次第に、「人としての道理から外れる」ことも意味するようになり、「非常識」や「残酷」などの意味も持つようになりました。

「ひどい」は、この「非道」が形容詞化したものです。
