The Chinese word 抵抗 (dǐkàng) is composed of two characters: 抵 (dǐ) and 抗 (kàng). The character 抵 originally meant "to reach" or "to arrive", and later extended to mean "to resist" or "to oppose". The character 抗 originally meant "to carry on the shoulder", and later extended to mean "to resist" or "to oppose". The combination of these two characters creates the word 抵抗, which means "to resist" or "to oppose".The word 抵抗 can be used in a variety of contexts. For example, it can be used to describe the act of resisting an enemy in battle, or the act of resisting temptation. It can also be used to describe the act of opposing a government or other authority figure.The word 抵抗 is a common word in Chinese, and it is important for HSK learners to understand its meaning and usage.
