About

The word 妥协 is formed by combining two characters, each contributing a core idea to create a unified concept. The first character, 妥 (tuǒ), carries the meaning of being "settled", "stable", or "appropriate". The second, 协 (xié), means "to cooperate", "to unite", or "to harmonize". Together, they conceptually merge to depict the act of reaching a stable or appropriate resolution through mutual cooperation and concession, where parties harmonize their differences to arrive at a settled agreement. The formation is thus a direct synthesis of the ideas of "settlement" and "cooperation".
