只好

Have no choice but with 只好

Structure (situation),只好 + the only way out

只好 (zhǐhǎo) means "have no choice but to": given a situation, you take the only option left, even if it’s not ideal. 没有公交车,我只好走路 = "there was no bus, so I had no choice but to walk". It goes before the verb of the forced solution.
