jealousy
This term captures a complex emotional state that oscillates between longing for what another has and a defensive desire to protect what one already possesses. It carries a heavy, often negative connotation of insecurity and bitterness, distinguishing it from simple admiration. While envy focuses on the lack of an object or trait, this word frequently implies a perceived threat to a relationship or status.
Grammatically, this noun is typically treated as an uncountable mass noun when referring to the emotion in general. To quantify it, speakers must use partitive constructions such as a fit of jealousy or a streak of jealousy, as the word does not naturally take a plural form in standard usage.
Ý nghĩa
A feeling of resentment or envy toward someone who possesses a quality, achievement, or possession that one desires.
