僵 (jiāng) — stiff, rigid (especially of body parts from cold, staying still, or after death); deadlocked, at an impasse (of discussions, situations, relationships)
Definition
僵 covers both physical stiffness (a stiff neck, a dead body) and figurative deadlock in talks or situations. Compared with 僵硬, 僵 is shorter and used more broadly, including the abstract 'deadlocked' sense.
