亏欠 (kuī qiàn) — to owe (money); to be in arrears; to feel indebted to; to owe (a debt of gratitude)
定義
Cover two senses: literal debt (money owed) and figurative debt (gratitude, an explanation). The gratitude sense is the one English-speakers miss — it's the same verb as owing money, used for emotional or moral debt.
