The Chinese word **冤枉** is a compound formed by combining two characters with related meanings: **冤**, which originally depicted a rabbit under a cover, conveys a sense of being trapped, wronged, or suffering an injustice; and **枉**, meaning something bent, crooked, or deviating from the straight path, implies perversion of what is right or proper. Together, they create a powerful semantic blend where **冤** provides the core sense of undeserved suffering, and **枉** adds the layer of a twisted, unfair process, resulting in the comprehensive meaning of being wrongfully accused, treated unjustly, or suffering an undeserved grievance.
