About
The word 为难 is formed by conceptually merging two ideas: 为, meaning "to do" or "to act", and 难, meaning "difficult". It paints a vivid picture of a person confronting a situation where action is required, yet every potential course feels fraught with difficulty, thereby creating the sensation of being trapped in a dilemma or feeling awkwardly caught between conflicting demands. The term thus evolves from this concrete image of "doing what is difficult" to encapsulate the abstract internal experience of being in a bind or feeling embarrassed by a problematic request.
