make someone feel very ashamed
to make someone feel very ashamed and small, especially when other people see it
รูปแบบการใช้:
to humiliate [someone] (often in front of [others])
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes say *"I feel humiliate"* instead of *"I feel humiliated"*. Remember: **humiliate** is the verb ("They humiliate me"), and **humiliated** is the adjective or past participle ("I feel humiliated"). Learners may also confuse **humiliate** with **embarrass**; **humiliate** is stronger and usually suggests a serious loss of dignity, often in public.

|
degrade (Stronger and more formal; emphasizes lowering someone's status or worth.)
คำตรงข้าม
