    小知识

    A salve is something that soothes. You can use an ointment as a salve for an itchy rash, or maybe your kind words can act as a salve to comfort a heartsick friend.

    In some parts of the world, people pronounce salve the way it's spelled, but in the U.S. the correct pronunciation has a silent L. You can use this word for things that make people feel better — not just ointment: “A hot cup of tea is a salve for me.” And you can also use it as a verb: “The nurse will salve your wounds now.” Salve comes from a Proto-Indo-European root that means “fat” or “butter.”
