Definition

Chicaning is a verb that refers to the act of using dishonest or deceptive tactics and manipulative behavior to gain an unfair advantage or outwit others. This term is commonly used to describe the act of employing sophistry or clever tricks in arguments, negotiations, or debates.
In the context of argumentation, chicaning involves resorting to cunning or specious reasoning to confuse or mislead an opponent, often with the purpose of undermining their position or swaying the audience's opinion. It may involve distorting facts, making irrelevant or false comparisons, or employing fallacious reasoning such as ad hominem attacks or red herrings. The aim of chicaning in arguments is to create the illusion of sound reasoning and undermine the credibility of opposing viewpoints, without genuinely addressing the main issue at hand.
In the realm of negotiations, chicaning involves using deceptive or underhanded tactics to manipulate the situation in one's favor. This can include withholding information, making false promises, or deliberately obscuring the true intent or consequences of a proposed agreement. Chicaning can undermine the trust and integrity necessary for productive negotiation and compromise.
Overall, chicaning is characterized by its deceitful and manipulative nature, typically used to gain an unfair advantage over others through dishonest means. It is considered unethical and often frowned upon in moral, intellectual, and professional contexts where honesty, integrity, and fairness are valued.

Etymology of CHICANING
The word "chicaning" is derived from the noun "chicane", which originated in French. Its etymology can be traced back to the Old French term "chicaner", meaning "to quibble" or "to engage in legal trickery". The Middle French variation of the word, "chicaner", also referred to a game similar to small-scale croquet.

Eventually, the verb form "chicaning" emerged, indicating the act of using deceitful tactics or playing tricks.
