About

The word "拗不过" is formed by combining the verb 拗 (meaning to bend or resist, here implying stubbornness), the negative particle 不 (meaning not), and the resultative complement 过 (meaning to pass or overcome), resulting in a phrase that literally means "cannot bend past" and idiomatically expresses inability to persuade or prevail against someone's will.
