1
take weapons away from someone
to take away guns or other weapons from a person, group, or country so they cannot use them
รูปแบบการใช้:
to disarm [someone/group/country]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes confuse "disarm" with "demilitarize." Use "disarm" for taking weapons from people, groups, or a country, and "demilitarize" mainly for removing military forces or weapons from a specific area or zone. Learners may also incorrectly say *"disarm his weapon"; natural English is "disarm him" or "take his weapon away."
คำพ้องความหมาย

|
demilitarize (used mainly about removing military forces or weapons from an area or country, not usually a single person)
คำตรงข้าม
arm (to give weapons to someone, the direct opposite of taking weapons away)
|
rearm (to give weapons again after they were taken away, opposite process over time)

make bomb or system safe
to stop a bomb, alarm, or other device from working so it cannot hurt anyone or make a signal
รูปแบบการใช้:
to disarm [a bomb/alarm/device]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes use "turn off" instead of "disarm" for bombs and explosives. While "turn off" can work for alarms or systems, for bombs or dangerous devices, "disarm" or "deactivate" is more natural. Also avoid saying *"disarm the door"; say "disarm the alarm" or "disarm the security system."
คำพ้องความหมาย
deactivate (more technical and neutral, used broadly for switching off any kind of device)
|
disable (emphasizes making something unable to function, not always with the idea of safety)
คำตรงข้าม
arm (for bombs or systems, means to set them so they are ready to explode or trigger)
|
activate (to start something working, opposite of making it unable to work)

make someone less angry or hostile
to make a person stop feeling angry or against you, often because you are kind or friendly
รูปแบบการใช้:
to disarm [someone] (with [something])
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes think this meaning is still about physical weapons. In this sense, "disarm" is figurative: you are taking away a person's emotional "weapons" like anger or criticism, not real guns. Do not say *"disarm his anger from him"; instead say "disarm his anger" or "disarm him with a smile."
คำพ้องความหมาย
win over (focuses on gaining support or agreement, not specifically on reducing anger)
|
charm (emphasizes being attractive or pleasant, which can have the effect of disarming someone)
คำตรงข้าม
provoke (to make someone more angry or upset, the opposite emotional effect)
|
alienate (to make someone feel distant or unfriendly toward you, instead of bringing them closer)
คำที่ใช้ร่วมกัน
