Passive

Path: Mistake   · Prev: Blunder   · Next: Reckless
    Keywords: Go term

Trying to win without fighting (overly-defensive plays, following the opponent around, being forced). Not to be confused with honte, which is properly taking care of business.

A most severe criticism of a passive play is to call it nurui (tepid).
