Winsome

Winsome


Pronounced:
<win-sum>
Causing joy or pleasure.

My use:

There is a winsome tone to your voice. Do you have good news?

Literary use:
By Emerson
Still plotting how their hungry ear. That winsome voice again might hear.


Memory trick:
win . some

win (reminds of) = to win or to gain with reward
some (reminds of) = some or a bunch
win a bunch

Listen: Winsome
