1. Stabbing

   A stabbing is penetration or rough contact with a sharp or pointed object at close range. Stab connotes purposeful action, as by an assassin or murderer, but it is also possible to accidentally stab oneself or others. Stabbing differs from slashing or cutting in that the motion of the object used in a stabbing generally moves perpendicular to and directly into the victim's body, rather than being drawn across it. Stabbings today are common among gangs and in prisons because knives are cheap, easy to acquire (or manufacture), easily concealable and relatively effective. In 2013, about 8 million stabbings occurred.

1. stabbing

   Stabbing generally refers to the act of thrusting or piercing an object, especially a sharp one like a knife or a needle, into something or someone. This action can cause damage or injury, and in a broader context, it can also metaphorically imply a sudden emotional pain or betrayal. It's noteworthy to understand that stabbing can be both a physical action and a metaphorical term for emotional harm or deceit.
