1. 1

    As a verb, to lull someone means to make them calm and sleepy, often with soft sound or gentle movement — like music that lulls a baby to sleep. It can also mean to make someone feel safe when they should actually stay careful, as in 'lulled into a false sense of security', a common exam phrase. As a noun, a lull is a short quiet stretch in the middle of something busy or noisy, like 'a lull in the conversation' or 'a lull in the storm.'
