         DefinitionShort: gentleness of attitude and behavior, in contrast with harshness in one’s dealings with others

         Glosses: ['gentleness', 'meekness', 'mildness']

         Comments: In a number of languages ‘gentleness’ is often expressed as a negation of harshness, so that ‘gentleness’ may often by rendered as ‘not being harsh with people,’ but gentleness may also be expressed in some instances in an idiomatic manner, for example, ‘always speaking softly to’ or ‘not raising one’s voice.’
