✔ 最佳答案
Fawn (intransitive verb) = 奉承, 討好
Fawn 如果解 ”討好”, 本身沒有名詞, 只能用現在分詞 fawning 當名詞 (Gerund)
其他常用的字, 名詞是 Flattery
Flattery (uncountable noun) = 諂媚; 奉承
Saying I was best ever was an obvious attempt at flattery.
Sycophancy (uncountable noun) = 拍馬屁, 奉承, 諂媚 (這個字比較少用)
fawn, flattery, sycophancy 全是負面字
Praise, compliment 解釋不同, 是正面字
