粘り

1. Origins, structure, and basic meaning

• Structure: 粘り (ねばり) can mean human persistence or a material's sticky viscosity.
• Basic usage: Refusal to give up leads to victory; a potato develops strong viscosity when heated.

2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

• Personal tenacity and physical viscosity
  • The first sense is figurative behavior and the second physical texture. Both use subject 粘りが, but predicates 勝利につながる and 出る select the domain.
