扭伤
When we talk about spraining or twisting a body part, especially joints like an ankle or wrist, the Chinese word you'll use is 扭伤 (niǔ shāng). It’s a versatile verb that directly translates to “to sprain” or “to twist an injury.”
For example, if you accidentally step awkwardly and hurt your ankle, you would say你把脚踝扭伤了 (nǐ bǎ jiǎohuái niǔ shāng le), meaning “You sprained your ankle.” Similarly, if someone twists their wrist, you could say他扭伤了手腕 (tā niǔ shāng le shǒuwàn), meaning “He twisted his wrist.”
It’s important to remember that 扭伤 specifically refers to this type of injury, not just any kind of twist. So, you wouldn't use it for twisting a cap off a bottle, for instance. Keep an eye out for this word; it's quite common when discussing minor injuries or accidents.
When we talk about injuring ourselves by twisting a joint, the verb you want to use is 扭伤 (niǔshāng). This word is specifically used for sprains, like when you twist your ankle or wrist. It implies a stretching or tearing of ligaments.
For example, if you say “我扭伤了脚踝 (wǒ niǔshāng le jiǎohuái),” you're saying “I sprained my ankle.” You can also use it for other joints such as your wrist (手腕 shǒuwàn) or back (腰 yāo).
When we talk about injuries, 扭伤 (niǔshāng) is the word you'll use for a sprain. Think of it as twisting something too far, like an ankle or a wrist. It's a very common injury, and this verb is specifically for that kind of overstretching or tearing of ligaments.
You might hear someone say, "我扭伤了脚踝 (Wǒ niǔshāng le jiǎohuái)," meaning "I sprained my ankle." It's a practical word to know when discussing health and minor accidents.

Alright, let's talk about 扭伤 (niǔ shāng). You've learned it means 'to sprain' or 'to twist' something like an ankle. Now, let's look at how you'll actually hear and use this word in daily conversations, at work, at school, or even when reading the news in Chinese. Knowing the word is one thing; understanding its context is where you really start speaking like a native.
§ Talking About Injuries: Common Scenarios
When someone gets hurt, especially in sports or by accident, 扭伤 (niǔ shāng) is one of the first words that comes up. It's a very common injury, so you'll hear it often. For example, if you're watching a basketball game or talking about someone who fell, this word will definitely pop up.
他踢足球时扭伤了脚踝。
Translation hint: He (踢足球时: while playing soccer) sprained (了: past tense marker) his (脚踝: ankle).
小心点，别扭伤腰。
Translation hint: Be careful (小心点), don't (别) sprain your (腰: waist/lower back).
§ In Medical Contexts and Asking for Help
If you ever need to describe an injury to a doctor or nurse in China, 扭伤 (niǔ shāng) is the word you need. It's direct and medically accurate for sprains. You might also hear it when people talk about going to the hospital or seeing a doctor after an accident.
我的脚扭伤了，很疼。
Translation hint: My (我的) foot (脚) is sprained (了), (很疼: it's very painful).
医生说我扭伤了韧带。
Translation hint: The doctor (医生) said (说) I (我) sprained (了) my (韧带: ligament).
§ In News and Sports Reports
News reports, especially those covering sports or accidents, will frequently use 扭伤 (niǔ shāng). It's a straightforward term for describing injuries without getting overly technical. If you're trying to keep up with Chinese news or sports, this word is essential.
运动员因扭伤退出了比赛。
Translation hint: The athlete (运动员) (因: because of) a sprain (退出了比赛: withdrew from the competition).
事故导致一人手臂扭伤。
Translation hint: The accident (事故) (导致: resulted in) one person's (一人) arm (手臂) being sprained.
§ Common Phrases and Usage Patterns
Here are some common ways 扭伤 (niǔ shāng) is used, which can help you understand its versatility.
- DEFINITION
- It's often paired with the body part that was sprained.
- 脚踝扭伤 (jiǎo huái niǔ shāng) - ankle sprain
- 手腕扭伤 (shǒu wàn niǔ shāng) - wrist sprain
- 腰部扭伤 (yāo bù niǔ shāng) - lower back sprain
- DEFINITION
- You can also use it to express the action of spraining.
他不小心扭伤了脚。
Translation hint: He (他不小心: accidentally) sprained (了) his (脚: foot).
By seeing 扭伤 (niǔ shāng) in these different contexts, you'll not only remember its meaning but also gain confidence in using it yourself. Start listening for it in Chinese media, and don't be afraid to use it in your own conversations. Practice makes perfect!
§ Don't confuse 扭伤 with other injury words
When you're talking about injuries in Chinese, it's easy to mix things up. 扭伤 specifically means to sprain or twist a joint, like your ankle or wrist. It doesn't mean a cut, a bruise, or a broken bone. Make sure you use the right word for the right injury.
- DEFINITION
- To sprain; to twist (an ankle, etc.).
Here's a quick rundown of some other common injury words to help you keep them straight:
摔倒 (shuāidǎo): To fall down. This describes the action that might lead to an injury, not the injury itself.
他摔倒了，膝盖很疼。(Tā shuāidǎo le, xīgài hěn téng.) — He fell down, and his knee hurts a lot.
骨折 (gǔzhé): To fracture; a broken bone. This is a much more serious injury than a sprain.
他的腿骨折了。(Tā de tuǐ gǔzhé le.) — His leg is broken.
擦伤 (cāshāng): To scratch; a graze or abrasion. This is a superficial skin injury.
我不小心擦伤了胳膊。(Wǒ bù xiǎoxīn cāshāng le gēbó.) — I accidentally grazed my arm.
割伤 (gēshāng): To cut; a cut wound. This is a deeper skin injury than a scrape.
他用刀割伤了手指。(Tā yòng dāo gēshāng le shǒuzhǐ.) — He cut his finger with a knife.
撞伤 (zhuàngshāng): To bruise; an injury from a collision. This implies impact.
我踢足球时撞伤了腿。(Wǒ tī zúqiú shí zhuàngshāng le tuǐ.) — I bruised my leg playing soccer.
§ Using 扭伤 as a noun
While 扭伤 is primarily a verb (to sprain), it can also be used as a noun, meaning 'a sprain' or 'a twist'. However, this is less common in everyday speech than using it as a verb. When you use it as a noun, it often follows another verb, like 有 (yǒu - to have) or 得到 (dédào - to get/receive).
他有一次严重的脚踝扭伤。(Tā yǒu yīcì yánzhòng de jiǎohuái niǔshāng.) — He had a serious ankle sprain.
§ Correcting common sentence structures
A frequent mistake is to directly translate English sentence structures into Chinese. For instance, in English, you might say "I sprained my ankle." In Chinese, while you can say "我扭伤了我的脚踝" (Wǒ niǔshāng le wǒ de jiǎohuái), it's often more natural and common to say "我的脚踝扭伤了" (Wǒ de jiǎohuái niǔshāng le), which literally means "My ankle sprained." This is a common pattern in Chinese where the injured body part becomes the subject of the sentence.
我的手腕扭伤了。(Wǒ de shǒuwàn niǔshāng le.) — My wrist is sprained.
Another way is to use 把 (bǎ) to emphasize the object that got sprained.
他不小心把脚踝扭伤了。(Tā bù xiǎoxīn bǎ jiǎohuái niǔshāng le.) — He accidentally sprained his ankle.
The key is to pay attention to how native speakers express these ideas. Listen and imitate, and you'll get better at it.
§ Similar words and when to use this one vs alternatives
When you're talking about injuries, especially those involving joints or ligaments, 扭伤 (niǔshāng) is your go-to word for 'sprain' or 'twist'. It's pretty specific to this type of injury. But Chinese has other words for different kinds of injuries, and it's good to know the difference so you can describe what happened accurately.
Let's look at some common alternatives and when you would use them instead of 扭伤.
- 拉伤 (lāshāng)
- This means 'to strain' or 'to pull (a muscle)'. While a sprain involves ligaments, a strain involves muscles or tendons. You would use 拉伤 if you overstretched a muscle, like a hamstring or a back muscle.
他踢足球时拉伤了大腿肌肉。(Tā tī zúqiú shí lāshāng le dàtuǐ jīròu.) - He strained his thigh muscle while playing soccer.
- 挫伤 (cuòshāng)
- This translates to 'contusion' or 'bruise'. You get a 挫伤 when you hit something hard, causing damage to the soft tissues under the skin, often resulting in bruising. It's not about twisting a joint.
他摔倒后膝盖挫伤了。(Tā shuāidǎo hòu xīgài cuòshāng le.) - His knee was bruised after he fell.
- 骨折 (gǔzhé)
- This is for a 'fracture' or 'broken bone'. This is a much more serious injury than a sprain or strain. If a bone is involved, you use 骨折.
他的手臂骨折了。(Tā de shǒubì gǔzhé le.) - His arm was fractured.
- 摔伤 (shuāishāng)
- This is a general term for 'injury from falling'. If someone just fell and got hurt, but you don't know the exact nature of the injury, 摔伤 can be a good general term. It could potentially include a sprain, but it's not specific to it.
她从楼梯上摔下来摔伤了。(Tā cóng lóutī shàng shuāi xiàlái shuāishāng le.) - She got hurt from falling down the stairs.
When you are talking about spraining something, always stick with 扭伤. It's precise and easily understood. Don't try to use other verbs for 'twist' if you mean a medical sprain; 扭伤 is a compound word that acts as a verb and directly conveys the meaning of a sprain.
- Use 扭伤 (niǔshāng) for sprained ankles, wrists, knees, or any joint that has been twisted beyond its normal range of motion, causing ligament damage.
- Do not use 扭 (niǔ) by itself when talking about a sprain, even though 扭 means 'to twist'. The compound 扭伤 specifically means 'to sprain'.
- For example, you would say 我扭伤了脚踝 (wǒ niǔshāng le jiǎohuái - I sprained my ankle), not 我扭了脚踝 (wǒ niǔ le jiǎohuái). The latter isn't wrong, but 扭伤 is the more complete and common medical term.
How Formal Is It?
"患者因运动不当导致右脚踝扭伤。"
"他不小心扭伤了脚。"
"哎呀，我把脚崴了。"
"小明玩的时候崴了脚，有点疼。"
"我昨天打球把脚崴了，走不动了。"

سهل الخلط
Both 拉伤 and 扭伤 describe injuries, but they refer to different types of soft tissue damage.
拉伤 specifically refers to a muscle strain or pull, where muscle fibers are stretched or torn. 扭伤 refers to a sprain, which is an injury to a ligament.
他踢足球时大腿肌肉拉伤了。(He pulled his thigh muscle while playing soccer.)
摔倒 means to fall down, and sometimes falling can lead to a sprain. However, they are not interchangeable.
摔倒 describes the act of falling. 扭伤 describes the specific injury that might result from a fall or other sudden movement.
我不小心摔倒了，所以扭伤了脚踝。(I accidentally fell down, so I sprained my ankle.)
Both are injuries, but one is much more severe than the other.
骨折 means a bone fracture (a broken bone). 扭伤 is a ligament injury. A sprain does not involve a broken bone.
医生说他的腿骨折了，需要手术。(The doctor said his leg was fractured and needed surgery.)
Both refer to injuries to soft tissues.
挫伤 means contusion or bruise, which is an injury to tissues under the skin without breaking the skin. 扭伤 is a ligament injury, which can also be accompanied by bruising but is a distinct type of injury.
他摔了一跤，膝盖挫伤了。(He fell and bruised his knee.)
Both involve joint injuries.
脱臼 means dislocation, where a bone is displaced from its normal position in a joint. 扭伤 is a sprain, an injury to the ligaments around a joint, but the bones remain in place.
他的肩膀脱臼了，疼得厉害。(His shoulder was dislocated and it hurt a lot.)

كيفية الاستخدام
When talking about a sprain in Chinese, the common way to say it is 扭伤 (niǔshāng). This word can be used as a verb, like in 'I sprained my ankle' (我把脚踝扭伤了 - Wǒ bǎ jiǎohuái niǔshāng le). It can also be used as a noun, like 'an ankle sprain' (脚踝扭伤 - jiǎohuái niǔshāng). You'll often hear it in contexts related to sports injuries or accidental twists.
A common mistake for English speakers is directly translating 'sprain' using a word like 缠绕 (chánrào) which means 'to entangle' or 'to wind around'. This is incorrect. Always use 扭伤 (niǔshāng) when referring to the injury of twisting a joint. Another mistake is forgetting the object when using it as a verb, e.g., saying '我扭伤了' (Wǒ niǔshāng le) which literally means 'I sprained' without specifying what. It's better to say 我扭伤了脚踝 (Wǒ niǔshāng le jiǎohuái - I sprained my ankle) or 我把脚踝扭伤了 (Wǒ bǎ jiǎohuái niǔshāng le - I sprained my ankle).
نصائح
Learn the Characters
"扭" (niǔ) means to twist or turn. "伤" (shāng) means injury or wound. Together, they literally mean 'twist injury'.
Common Use
This verb is most often used for body parts, especially ankles. You'll frequently hear it in contexts like sports or accidents. It's about an accidental twist causing an injury.
How to Say 'I sprained my ankle'
Saying you sprained your ankle is very common. The structure is "我扭伤了脚踝" (Wǒ niǔshāng le jiǎohuái). "脚踝" (jiǎohuái) means ankle.
Past Tense Marker
Notice the particle "了" (le) after "扭伤" in examples like "扭伤了脚踝". This indicates that the action has been completed or the state has changed (i.e., you have sprained it).
Other Body Parts
While the ankle is common, you can also sprain other parts. For example, "扭伤了手腕" (niǔshāng le shǒuwàn) means sprained wrist. "手腕" (shǒuwàn) is wrist.
Distinguish from 'Broken'
"扭伤" is a sprain, not a break. The word for a bone fracture is "骨折" (gǔzhé). Make sure not to confuse them, as they describe different types of injuries.
Questioning an Injury
If you want to ask someone if they sprained something, you can say, "你扭伤了吗？" (Nǐ niǔshāng le ma?) meaning, "Did you sprain it?"
Contextual Clues
In conversations, if someone mentions falling or stepping awkwardly, and then uses "扭伤", it almost certainly refers to a sprain. The context usually makes it clear.
Opposite Actions
While "扭伤" is about accidental injury, the verb "扭" can also be used for intentional twisting or turning. For example, "扭头" (niǔtóu) means to turn one's head.
Practice with Sentences
The best way to remember "扭伤" is to use it. Try making your own sentences like "他不小心扭伤了膝盖" (Tā bù xiǎoxīn niǔshāng le xīgài) - He accidentally sprained his knee. "膝盖" (xīgài) is knee.
