辜负

• ピンイン: gū fù
• 漢字の分解: 辜 = 古 (ancient/enduring) + 辛 (hardship; branding tool — signifying punishment or sin) — to bear an enduring fault; 负 = 刀 (knife) + 贝 (shell/value) — originally to carry value on one's back; to owe, to bear a burden

意味

（期待・信頼・好意を）裏切る；背く

辜负 carries strong moral and emotional accountability. It is commonly used when someone fails to honour trust (辜负信任), falls short of the hopes placed in them (辜负父母的期望), or wastes an opportunity (辜负大好时光). More emotive and weighted than simply 失败 (to fail). Often appears in formal rhetoric, heartfelt personal expression, and motivational contexts.

2. 这批年轻的科研人员深知肩负重任，立志不辜负国家的培养和人民的厚望。
