后怕 (hòu pà) — miedo posterior al suceso; sentir miedo tras pasar el peligro

Definición

后怕 (hòu pà) means the delayed fear you feel after a dangerous moment has already passed — the shaky 'phew, that was close' reaction, not fear felt during the danger itself. It can be used as both a noun (一种后怕) and a verb (我后怕了).
