An interesting phenomenon is the feeling of words. For example, there is the adjective "malleable." This definition seems soft and warm to the touch, like clay. Remember that feeling? Plasticine is such a heated clay for children and not only. All those who went to children's art circles could feel like potters. We will analyze the adjective, the sensation connected directly with this.
Value
What does a person have in common with clay? In addition to the fact that, according to some ideas, man was created from clay, clay is a malleable material, and a person with a soft character, too.
Sometimes men and women have a core in their character, but at some points they melt like hot wax under the influence of a flame. Someone cannot refuse a request for a child, although it should, someone - a wife. Everyone has an Achilles heel in this regard. Is it clear that this is malleable? In any case, the meaning of the adjective is about to arrive:
- Easily machined, molded.
- Easy to persuade, influence, compliant.
As we see, the object of study can characterize both a physical subject and a person’s character. In both cases, it is important to comply with the measure. If, for example, we heat-treat the material too much, it will eventually deteriorate. The same is with a person: persuasion can be influenced only to a certain extent, despite the softness of character, but, just as with the material, you need to know when to retreat, to loosen hold. If this is clear, then we can move on.
