How it's used
Derived from the English word fit, this term functions as a noun referring to a way out or a clever method to handle a situation. It is primarily used in informal, conversational settings when discussing problem solving or strategic planning. It carries a slightly playful or streetwise nuance compared to more formal terms like 方法 or 策略.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with the English adjective fit, as the Cantonese usage is strictly a noun meaning a solution or tactic. It is also highly colloquial and should be avoided in professional or written contexts.
