Definition
有伤 means 'to have an injury' or 'to be injured', typically referring to a physical wound or hurt. It can also appear in fixed expressions like 有伤风化 (harmful to public morals) or 有伤大雅 (offensive to good taste), where it takes on a figurative meaning of 'to harm or damage' something abstract. The structure is verb + object (有 + 伤), so it is not separable.
