Meaning and Usage
"无理" literally means "without reason" or "unreasonable." It is commonly used to describe actions, demands, or behaviors that lack logic or fairness. It often carries a negative connotation, implying that something is excessive, unfair, or impossible to accept.
Common Contexts
You will often hear "无理" in everyday conversations when someone complains about unfair treatment, unreasonable requests, or illogical behavior. It can describe both concrete situations (like impossible demands) and abstract attitudes (like stubbornness).
Collocations and Patterns
- 无理要求 (unreasonable demands): used when someone asks for something beyond what is fair or possible.
- 无理取闹 (make trouble unreasonably): describes causing trouble without justification.
- 无理坚持 (unreasonably insist): refers to stubbornly holding onto an opinion without good reason.
Usage Notes
"无理" is often used in a critical tone. When using it, speakers imply that the other party is acting unfairly or irrationally. It is different from "不合理," which is more formal and often used in written language or technical contexts. Avoid confusing "无理" with "没理," which means "not right" but is more colloquial and less formal.
