抵抗
ていこう · teikou · JLPT N3 · noun
resistance
🛡️✋ 抵 resist + 抗 oppose: two hands (扌) pushing back = resistance
Both kanji carry the hand radical 扌, so the word is literally two hands pushing back. 抵 means to resist or push against, and 抗 means to defy, as in 抗議 (protest). Teikou is opposing pressure with your hands.
