難しいと、無理は、意味が違う。
難しいは、困難、可能性は、低いが不可能ではない。無理は、不可能。
それなのに、無理というのを、無理という言葉を使いたくないのか、婉曲的にいいたいからかは、知らないが無理というのをそれは、難しいねえ。という言い方
をするひとがいます。だから聞いたほうは、無理てはなく難しいわけだから、可能性は、低いがある。困難だが、努力すればできると受け取るひとがいます。
そういう場合、無理ですといえばいいのになぜ、難しいという言い方をするのでしょうか？

"If a Japanese colleague says something is difficult, he's probably telling you it's impossible." |

well-known quirk, strictly speaking maybe of a cultural rather than linguistic nature, but I think it'd be extremely helpful to note
this is how it's actually used. |

Thanks for the expansion. This one can be split so many ways. Daijirin has 10 sense and GG5 has 6. I think sense 2 above could probably be broken in two |
