Definition
慵懒 describes a state of being lazily relaxed, often in a pleasant or comfortable way, like a lazy afternoon or a cat lounging in the sun. It's different from 懒惰 (laziness as a character flaw) — 慵懒 carries a more neutral or even positive feeling. You can use it as a stative verb (adjective) to describe a person, mood, or scene.
