偏袒 (piān tǎn) — être partial envers; montrer du favoritisme envers (quelqu'un)
Définition
A verb meaning to side with or favor one side unfairly in a dispute or competition. It always implies bias and unfairness, so it is stronger than simply 'preferring' — and note the '袒' (expose the shoulder) must not be confused with the surname 谭.
