(xùn) — to train, to drill (skills, often physically); to admonish, to scold (from a position of authority)

Definizione

训 covers two senses: training (drills, skills) and scolding from authority — harsher and more physical-discipline focused than 教 or 教育 ('teach/educate'). For scolding, it sits between 骂 (casual cursing) and 警告 (formal warning).
