Those are really awkward and uncommon things to say. Maybe you mean “hurt”?

@SGGGGG The first phrase you gave is not really used. People do not really use the second phrase either, but it is used at times. An example sentence for when that would be used would be: It did not pain her to hear about the death of a fly.

@SGGGGG Wow, it is amazing that you could read a book on such a high English level! Also, I am just letting you know that most people do not speak on the level of that book in their day-to-day conversation. (However, in general, reading really helps you to be able to think in a different language and helps you to learn a lot of words.)
