Editor:
GR ~ noircir par le feu

Example: In LA, the literal meaning of 火燎毛 is given as 因近火而燒焦毛髮.
(The figurative meaning is 情況急迫,刻不容緩.)

So 火燎 seems to mean 'to suffer damage due to proximity to fire, without necessarily igniting.'
(i.e. singe or scorch)
Diff:
# 火燎 火燎 [huo3 liao2] /To burn with an open flame/
+ 火燎 火燎 [huo3 liao2] /to singe; to scorch/
