noun, noun which may take the genitive case particle 'no'
pressing forward without giving a chance to explain
Archaic term describing a situation where one party pushes their point or advances without allowing the other side to explain or defend themselves. Rare in modern Japanese.
昔の武士の間では、天辺押しの議論は無礼とされた。
Among samurai of old, pressing an argument without letting the other explain was considered rude.
Compound of 天辺 (てっぺい, 'top, summit') and 押し (おし, 'pushing'). The exact derivation is uncertain; it may refer to pushing from a position of dominance without allowing the other party to respond.
