- 1懇求的、哀求的
When you are imploring someone, you are asking for something with strong feeling — almost begging. The asker is not cool or proud; they really want this, and they let that show. You will meet the word most often as a describing word: an imploring look, an imploring voice, imploring eyes. That look is doing the asking for you. It can also be the -ing form of the verb implore: she was imploring him to stay. Same feeling either way. It is stronger than plain ask, and a little more formal than beg or plead, which is what people usually say in everyday talk. You hear imploring more in stories, news about people in trouble, and careful writing. Though actually, it is not only for big life-or-death moments. A child can give an imploring look over a . The point is the emotion in the asking, not the size of the thing.
