No. A warm gentle breeze would not be likely to abash a person. The verb abash means to 'bash' someone usually through a verbal comment. This happens when one abuses or puts down someone making them feel ashamed, inferior, or embarrassed. A breeze is not a person and does not have the ability to abuse or put down a person. Also, it should be noted here that the beginning of this sentence has a positive tone with the words <em>warm </em>and <em>gentle</em>. However, the word <em>abash</em> carries a negative tone.

<h3></h3><h3>Further Explanation</h3>

The word <em>abash</em> has Latin roots coming from a word that means "to open wide, gape". This relates to the present day definition since when a person is abashed one may open their mouth in a gesture of astonishment and embarrassment.

Some examples of abashed in a sentence:

  • We were determined to not only defeat our rival, but also abash them on their home field.
  • Jeremiah frequently tried to abash his friend to make himself feel superior when girls were present.

The noun form is abashment. After the hare realized he lost the race to the tortoise, he hung his head in abashment.

Some synonyms of abash are confuse, mortify, embarrass, fluster, rattle.
