Word of the Day – 11th March
Today’s word of the day is “wheedled“. We found it in a story about bullying in our”Blue Skies” book called “Until the Angel Came”.
The sentence was “Shake, and I’ll give you a sweetie,’ he wheedled, as if he were talking to a baby”.
To wheedle means to coax or to try and persuade.
