絶対

definitely
🔒💯 絶 sever + 対 opposite = no opposite left, so: absolute, definitely
絶 means to cut off or end; 対 means facing, opposite, or a pair. Something with every opposite cut away has no alternative, which is why it means absolute. Sound hook: zettai sounds like set tie, a knot set so tight it holds without fail.
