深度学习

mollify (MOLL ih fye) From the Latin word for “soften” this verb, like “con-ciliate,” means “to calm in temper” or “to soothe hostile feelings.” The noun “mollification” is too much of a mouthful; nobody uses it.

•When Daisy dropped her ice cream cone, she began to wail. Nothing would mollify the four-year-old, not even a new scoop of double chocolate chip.

•When Rover ate Ian’s new loafer, Ian became enraged and could not be mollified; we had to take the dog to a neighbor’s house to keep him safe from Ian’s fury.

molify(MOLL ih fye)来自拉丁语单词“软化”,这个动词与“con cilicate”一样,意思是“平息情绪”或“安抚敌对情绪”;没有人使用它。
•当黛西扔下冰淇淋筒时,她开始嚎啕大哭。没有什么能安抚这个四岁的孩子,甚至连一勺新的双层巧克力片都没有。
•当罗弗吃了伊恩的新懒汉时,伊恩变得愤怒,无法安抚;我们不得不把狗带到邻居家,以保护它免受伊恩的愤怒。
