bravery in the face of danger
Very strong courage, especially when a person faces danger or a fight.
استعمال کا انداز:
valor in [doing something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse "valor" with "value" because the words look similar; however, "valor" means courage, while "value" usually means worth. Another common mistake is using "valor" in very casual speech where "bravery" or "courage" would sound more natural. Also note that British English usually spells this word "valour."
