Definition
抵触 (dǐ chù) means 'to conflict, to contradict' and often describes a mental or emotional resistance or clash of interests, rules, or ideas (e.g., conflicting policies, resistant attitude). It is less direct than 冲突 (chōng tū 'to clash'), which implies a more overt, often physical confrontation, and less about logical inconsistency than 矛盾 (máo dùn 'contradictory'). 对抗 (duì kàng) is stronger, meaning 'to confront or oppose' actively.
