Kanji 情 feelings, emotion, passion Related words 容よう 赦しゃ 容赦 alone means 'forgiveness' or 'pardon' and can be used in positive requests (e.g., ご容赦ください). 情け容赦 is stronger and almost exclusively used in negative contexts to mean 'mercy' or 'leniency'.
情なさ け 情け means 'sympathy' or 'compassion' and can be used in various expressions (e.g., 情けをかける). 情け容赦 combines it with 容赦 to emphasize the absence of mercy.
Etymology Compound of 情け (mercy, compassion) and 容赦 (pardon, forgiveness). The combination reinforces the idea of leniency or mercy, but the word is now almost exclusively used in negative phrases.
