My brain has stopped working and for the life of me I can't remember the word that people use that's like plamasing. kinda to praise someone to lift their spirts.It's a common word but my mind has just gone blank!

People do use "plamasing" from the Irish Plamás to mean flattery, etc. I don't think you'll find it in an English dictionary though.

Weird how sometimes you can forget simple words after one too many.

Yea it is plamasing. Or sometimes plossing, as in yerman was plossing up to his boss. I always thought it meant licking arse

Thuck_Fat

Hooray! All three of us were right!

lol of course I didn't explain it properly! I think I'm stupid. :eek:

I should have asked for a word that meant -> "To treat with an apparent kindness that betrays a feeling of superiority"
