推卸

• ピンイン: tuī xiè
• 漢字の分解: 推 = 扌 (hand) + 隹 (bird, phonetic); 卸 = 卩 (seal/kneel) + 午 (noon) — originally 'remove a cart's load'

意味

責任逃れをする／責任を押し付ける

Strongly negative in tone. Almost exclusively appears with 责任 (推卸责任 = shirk responsibility). Implies selfish avoidance of accountability, especially in professional or social contexts where one clearly has an obligation. Using this term to describe someone is a serious criticism.
