-===== Core Meaning =====
-  * **Pinyin (with tone marks):** quán yù
-  * **Part of Speech:** Verb
-  * **HSK Level:** HSK 5
-  * **Concise Definition:** To recover completely from an illness or injury; to be fully cured.
-  * **In a Nutshell:** **痊愈 (quányù)** is a strong, formal word that signifies a total and final recovery. Think of it as the moment a doctor declares you are 100% free of a disease, or when a serious wound has healed completely, leaving no trace of the ailment. It’s not just "feeling better"; it’s the definitive end of a medical condition. You wouldn't use it for a simple cold, but you would for recovering from surgery or a major illness.
-===== Character Breakdown =====
-  * **痊 (quán):** This character means "to recover from an illness." It's composed of two parts:
-    * The "sickness" radical 疒 (nè) on the outside, which is found in many characters related to disease and ailments.
-    * The character 全 (quán) on the inside, which means "whole" or "complete."
-    * Together, they create a vivid picture: making a sickness "complete" or "finished."
-  * **愈 (yù):** This character means "to heal" or, in other contexts, "more." The key component here is the "heart" radical 心 (xīn) at the bottom, suggesting a healing that is deep or from the core.
-  * **Combined Meaning:** When you put **痊 (complete recovery from sickness)** and **愈 (deep healing)** together, you get **痊愈 (quányù)**. The combination creates a powerful and formal term that emphasizes a total, definitive, and deep-seated healing process has concluded.
-===== Cultural Context and Significance =====
-In Chinese culture, health and well-being are paramount. The concept of **痊愈 (quányù)** taps into a deep cultural desire for complete restoration and a return to balance, an idea also central to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It's not just about the absence of symptoms but the return of the body to its whole, harmonious state.
-A useful comparison is with the English phrase "to make a full recovery." While functionally similar, **痊愈 (quányù)** carries a more clinical and final weight. In the West, someone recovering from a major operation might say, "I'm finally back on my feet!" This is personal and focuses on regained ability. A Chinese person might express a similar sentiment with "我终于痊愈了 (wǒ zhōngyú quányù le)," which sounds more like a formal declaration of being cured. The term implies a clear line has been crossed from "sick" to "well." It is the goal of any treatment and the best news a patient and their family can hear.
-This term is almost always used in a positive, hopeful context. The most common phrase you'll encounter is **祝你早日痊愈 (zhù nǐ zǎorì quányù)**, which is the standard, sincere way to say "I hope you get well soon."
-===== Practical Usage in Modern China =====
-**痊愈 (quányù)** is primarily used in formal or serious contexts.
-  * **Medical Situations:** This is its most common habitat. Doctors use it in diagnoses and prognoses. Patients and families use it when discussing recovery from significant health issues like pneumonia, fractures, surgery, or chronic diseases.
-    * Example: 医生说他的肺炎已经完全**痊愈**了。 (Yīshēng shuō tā de fèiyán yǐjīng wánquán **quányù** le.) - The doctor said his pneumonia has completely healed.
-  * **Formal Well-Wishes:** It is the go-to term for formal get-well-soon cards, messages, or when speaking to someone about a serious condition. It shows respect and sincerity.
-    * Example: 祝您早日**痊愈**，恢复健康。 (Zhù nín zǎorì **quányù**, huīfù jiànkāng.) - Wishing you a speedy and full recovery, and a return to health.
-  * **Figurative Healing (Less Common):** While less frequent, it can be used metaphorically to describe recovering from emotional trauma or heartbreak. This usage is more literary or poetic.
-    * Example: 时间也无法让这道心灵的创伤**痊愈**。 (Shíjiān yě wúfǎ ràng zhè dào xīnlíng de chuāngshāng **quányù**.) - Even time cannot fully heal this emotional wound.

-===== Nuances and Common Mistakes =====
-  * **The "好了 (hǎo le)" Trap:** The most common mistake is using **痊愈 (quányù)** for minor, everyday ailments. You don't "痊愈" from a headache or a common cold. That would be like saying "I have achieved a full and complete recovery from my sniffles," which sounds ridiculous.
-    * **Incorrect:** 我感冒**痊愈**了。(Wǒ gǎnmào **quányù** le.)
-    * **Correct:** 我感冒好了。(Wǒ gǎnmào hǎo le.) - My cold is better.
-    * **Rule of Thumb:** If the ailment is minor and temporary, use 好了 (hǎo le). If it's serious, required a doctor's intervention, or was a long-term condition, **痊愈 (quányù)** is appropriate.
-  * **痊愈 (quányù) vs. 康复 (kāngfù):** This is a subtle but important distinction.
-    * **痊愈 (quányù):** The //destination//. It means the illness is **gone**. It's the end state of being 100% cured.
-    * **[[康复]] (kāngfù):** The //journey//. It means "to recuperate," "to rehabilitate." It describes the **process** of getting better and regaining strength and function.
-    * **Example:** 一个中风病人需要很长时间来**康复** (A stroke patient needs a long time to **rehabilitate/recuperate**), but they may never completely **痊愈** (be **fully cured** from its effects).
