/ˈʌndər prəˈtɛst/ – Phrase
Definition: miễn cưỡng.
A more thorough explanation: “Under protest” is a legal term used to indicate that a particular action or decision is being taken reluctantly or under duress, and that the individual or party involved does not agree with or accept the action or decision but is proceeding with it to avoid further negative consequences. It is often used to preserve one’s rights to challenge the action or decision at a later time.
Example: The defendant signed the contract under protest, indicating that he did not agree with its terms but felt compelled to do so.
