BLACKMAIL: meaning and examples
Good morning,
In light of the very "interesting" developments in Marbella, I thought we'd do a brief series of crime words.
Today's word is:
to blackmail (verb)
It means: to make someone give you money or to do what you want by threatening to tell people negative or embarrassing information about them.
Example 1:
Someone was trying to
blackmail him with pictures of him with his secret lover.
Example 2:
The woman claims that she was
blackmailed into helping the men with the robbery.
If you have any questions about today's word, please post them in the Daily Vitamin Plus! forum section on our website.
