Definition
容忍 (róng rěn) means to tolerate or put up with something unpleasant, emphasizing patience and forbearance. It differs from 忍 (rěn), which focuses on enduring hardship or pain, and from 包容 (bāo róng), which has a more positive sense of forgiveness and acceptance. 将就 (jiāng jiu) implies reluctantly making do with something less than ideal, while 容纳 (róng nà) is broader, meaning to contain or accommodate.
