意味
To give up or stop participating.
文化的背景
In the Soviet Union, sports were a matter of national pride. 'Сойти с дистанции' was a serious failure for an athlete, often requiring a formal explanation to the coach or committee. This gravity carried over into the figurative use. In the 1990s and 2000s, the phrase became a staple of business journalism to describe the 'natural selection' of companies in the new capitalist market. In Russian universities, especially in STEM fields, there is a high 'dropout' rate. Students often use this phrase to describe classmates who couldn't handle the 'marathon' of 5-6 years of study. Russian literature often explores the theme of the 'superfluous man' or the person who cannot keep up with social expectations. 'Сойти с дистанции' is often used in literary criticism to describe these characters.
