1. 1殷勤地、討好地(文雅;不是「自滿地」)

    When you do something complaisantly, you do it in a way that is meant to please other people: you agree, you give way, you make yourself easy to be with. You might nod complaisantly, smile complaisantly, or go along complaisantly with a plan you did not choose. Like , this adverb is formal and a little old-fashioned; you will find it in writing more than in speech. It can sound warm (kind, helpful) or a bit weak (too ready to please). It is not complacently. Complacently is the “I’m already fine, so I stop trying” adverb, and it . Complaisantly is the “I’ll do what you like” adverb. Same-looking family, opposite social direction.

組成complaisant(樂於討好別人的)+ -ly(變成副詞)。
