One way to hold this word: your two hands closing round something and never finding a grip. The thing is fine in itself — it is the size and the shape that beat you. Keep that picture and the second use follows easily, because a rule book or a company can beat your hands in exactly the same way.
From the word’s history
From Middle English unweldy: un- plus wieldy, from wield, to have power over something and move it. Cognate forms in Old Frisian and Middle Dutch carry the sense of having no power or no mastery over a thing.
來自中古英語 unweldy，結構是 un-（不）加 wieldy，而 wieldy 來自 wield（有力量去駕馭、揮動）。古弗里斯蘭語、中古荷蘭語的同源詞都帶有「沒有力量、控制不了」的意思。所以字面上，unwieldy 就是「你駕馭不了的」，這正好是它今天兩個用法共同的底。
