noun
Buddhist technical term for one of the three poisons, often translated as 'aversion' or 'hatred'. Rarely used outside Buddhist contexts; commonly appears in the compound 瞋恚 (しんに).

「瞋恚」という言葉は、強い怒りや憎しみを指す。
The term 瞋恚 refers to intense anger or hatred.
Compound form meaning 'anger' or 'hatred', more commonly encountered than 瞋 alone.
Borrowed from Buddhist Chinese, ultimately from Sanskrit dveṣa (aversion). The kanji 瞋 and 嗔 both represent the concept of anger or ill will.
