xoay sở
/kənˈtraɪv//kənˈtraɪv/The word "contrive" originates from two Old French words: "conter" meaning "to oppose" and "ever" meaning "against." In Middle English, "contrev prompt" or "against one's original idea" evolved into "contrev" and eventually became "contrive" in Modern English. In its original context, "contrive" referred to contravening or going against something, which gradually shifted to the current meaning of designing or planning something in a clever or cunning way. Today, "contrive" still carries the sense of ingenuity and originality, but can also imply some degree of artifice or forcedness.
