Kanji 議 deliberation, consultation, debate Related words 決定 is a general word for any decision, while 議決 specifically means a decision reached through formal deliberation and voting.
可決 means the approval or passage of a specific proposal, while 議決 refers to the formal act of voting or the resolution itself, whether it passes or not.
議決 emphasizes the procedural act of voting to pass a resolution, whereas 決議 refers to the resolution itself as the outcome.
Don't confuse with 決議 and 議決 use the same two kanji reversed; 決議 usually refers to the resolution or document adopted, while 議決 emphasizes the act of deciding through a vote.
議決 is a resolution or decision reached by a vote in a deliberative body like a council, while 評決 is specifically a jury or panel's verdict, and the two are easily confused since both share the kanji 決.
Etymology Compound of 議 (discussion, deliberation) and 決 (decide, settle). The combination naturally yields the meaning 'to decide through discussion'.
