摘　　要："病"的本义,今或作重病义,或作一般疾病义。通过对《诗经》等八部早期上古文献中的"病""疾病"用例考察,发现早期疾病义都用"疾","病"不用作疾病义,更无重病义;"疾病"连用,其"病"为形容词的危重义。进而通过对八部上古文献中"病""疾病"所有词义及其训诂的梳理,可定"病"的本义是困苦义。Nowadays, the ＂bing＂ （病） is explained as semanteme of serious disease or common illness. However, the intrinsic meaning of bing has not the meaning of illness or serious diseases, while ji（ 疾 ） , rather than bing, involves these meanings, which was rooted out from research and collection of usage cases in eight ancient books. And bing was an adjective equal with being serious when ji and bing were joined together. Thus, through the investigation of the cases, sorting their meaning and interpretation from the books, we reach the conclusion that the original meaning of bing is suffering hardship.
