This is similar to how English speakers might use \u2018fine\u2019 or \u2018alright then\u2019 when they are really against an idea. \u2018\u597d\u5566\u2019 is similar to \u2018\u597d\u5427\u2019 but with a stronger sense of reluctance. For example, if someone asks you to clean your room and you reply \u2018\u597d\u5566\u2019, it means you will do it, but you really don\u2019t want to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"custom_example_style\">\u670b\u53cb\uff1a\u597d\u5566\uff0c\u522b\u54ed\u4e86\uff0c\u6211\u4eec\u51fa\u53bb\u6563\u6563\u6b65\u5427\uff01(P\u00e9ngy\u01d2u: h\u01ceo la, bi\u00e9 k\u016b le, w\u01d2men ch\u016bq\u00f9 s\u00e0n s\u00e0n b\u00f9 ba!)<br>Friend: Fine, stop crying.
