How it's used

Describes a state of being completely firm in a decision that involves cutting ties or refusing to compromise. It carries a sense of coldness or finality, often used in the context of ending relationships or rejecting someone's request for a second chance. Unlike just being firm, it implies a lack of emotional warmth or hesitation.

Common mistake

Do not confuse this with 堅決, which is a neutral or positive term for being firm or resolute in one's goals. 決絕 is specifically about being harsh or unyielding towards another person.
