adjective B2 property
1

easily affected or harmed by something

Easily harmed or changed by something, or easily influenced by it.

الگوی کاربرد: [someone/something] is susceptible to [something]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes say *'susceptible of' something harmful (e.g. *'susceptible of cancer'). In modern English, for this meaning we almost always use 'susceptible to' plus the thing that affects or harms: 'susceptible to cancer', 'susceptible to stress'. Also, do not say *'very much susceptible'; use 'highly susceptible' or 'particularly susceptible'.
هم‌معنی‌ها
vulnerable (Very close in meaning; often used for people or systems that can be easily harmed, while 'susceptible' also often takes 'to' plus a cause.) | prone (Emphasizes a tendency to experience something, especially problems; often used for repeated problems (e.g. 'prone to headaches').)
متضادها
resistant (Describes someone or something that does not allow a substance, influence, or change to affect it easily.) | immune (Stronger idea than 'resistant', often used with diseases or criticism, meaning completely or almost completely protected.)

adjective B2 property
2

easily emotionally influenced or impressed

Easily moved by feelings or other people, so that you can quickly like, trust, or be hurt by them.

الگوی کاربرد: [someone] is susceptible to [emotional influence]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse this with 'sensitive'. 'Susceptible' here suggests not only feeling emotions strongly but also being easily influenced by other people, praise, or criticism. Use 'susceptible to' with the thing that influences: 'susceptible to flattery', not *'susceptible by flattery'.
هم‌معنی‌ها
impressionable (Stresses that someone, often young, is easily influenced or shaped by other people or ideas.) | sensitive (Focuses on feeling things deeply and being easily hurt; not always about being influenced.)
متضادها
thick-skinned (Describes someone who is not easily hurt or affected by criticism, insults, or emotional pressure.) | impervious (More formal; suggests not being affected at all by emotions, criticism, or influence.)
ترکیب‌های رایج
susceptible to flattery |susceptible to charm |emotionally susceptible |highly susceptible to criticism

adjective formal C1 property
3

capable of a particular treatment or interpretation

Able to be treated, changed, or understood in a particular way.

الگوی کاربرد: [something] is susceptible of [action/interpretation]
اشتباه رایج:
This formal pattern 'susceptible of + noun/gerund' is rare in modern everyday speech. Learners sometimes try to use it in casual conversation, where 'can be' or 'able to be' is more natural. For example, say 'The claim can be proved', not '*The claim is susceptible of proof' in normal conversation.
هم‌معنی‌ها
capable (Very general; often used with 'of' to show that something can be done or is possible.) | amenable (Formal; often used for things that can be changed or influenced by a process or method.)
متضادها
incapable (Shows that something cannot be treated, changed, or done in the stated way.) | insusceptible (Rare and formal; means not susceptible to a particular treatment or action.)
ترکیب‌های رایج
susceptible of proof |susceptible of change |susceptible of only one interpretation
موضوع‌ها
law |academia |formal_writing |core_vocabulary |communication
