The word "懒得" is formed by combining the adjective "懒" (lǎn), meaning "lazy" or "unwilling", with the structural particle "得" (de), which here functions to introduce a complement of possibility or result. Together, they create a compound predicate that expresses a state of mind: a feeling of being too lazy or too mentally unwilling to bother with a certain action. It is not merely about physical laziness but often conveys a sense of disinterest or a conscious decision that the effort required is not worth the outcome, as in "懒得去" (too lazy/unwilling to go). This construction grammatically links the subjective feeling ("懒") directly to the specific action that follows, forming a fixed and commonly used phrase.
