Did You Know? Crisis Fun Facts

• The word “crisis” originates from the Greek word “krisis,” which means “decision.” In a medical context, it referred to the turning point in a disease.
• The famous (but slightly inaccurate) Chinese translation for “crisis” (wēijī) is often cited as being composed of two characters: “danger” and “opportunity.” While wēi (危) does mean danger, jī (机) more closely means “a crucial point” or “incipient moment,” not opportunity.
• The term “mid-life crisis” was coined by Canadian psychoanalyst Elliott Jaques in a 1965 article, referring to a period of dramatic self-doubt in one’s 40s or 50s.
• In storytelling, a crisis is a crucial part of the plot structure, representing the climax where the protagonist must face their primary obstacle.
