What is the difference between wheedle, cajole and coax?
Can you explain to me the difference between wheedle, cajole, and coax?
Of course! All three words mean to persuade or convince someone to do something, but there are some subtle differences. Wheedle implies a pleading or insincere tone, while cajole suggests gentle and persistent urging. Coaxing involves using gentleness, patience, and often flattery to persuade someone.
