Groping means feeling around with your hands because you cannot see well — like groping for a light switch in a dark room. It can also mean touching someone's body in a sexual way without their permission, which is a serious and unwelcome act; news reports often use this word for that kind of unwanted touching.
（在黑暗中）摸索；（不當的）觸摸、性騷擾式碰觸
