The Chinese word 挨揍 (ái zòu) is a verb-object compound formed by combining the character 挨, which means "to endure" or "to suffer," with the character 揍, which means "to hit" or "to beat." In this grammatical construction, 挨 acts as the verb indicating the reception of an action, and 揍 serves as its object, specifying the action being received. Thus, the term literally means "to endure a beating" and is used idiomatically to mean "to get beaten up" or "to take a physical thrashing," effectively conveying the concept of being on the receiving end of violence.
