         DefinitionShort: to bring under control and to continue to restrain

         Glosses: ['to control', 'to bring under control', 'to hold in check']

         Comments: In many languages it may be difficult to speak of ‘bringing a person under control.’ It may therefore be more appropriate to use some such phrase as ‘not allow a person to do just what he wants’ or ‘make a person behave’ or ‘make a person obey.’ In speaking of animals, one may render {S:05900300700028} as ‘all kinds of wild animals … can be made to obey a person.’
