Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Village"
The meaning of "Village" in various phrases and sentences
Q:
What does The village was in a vale between two gentle acclivities. mean?
A:
This is probably a matter of vocabulary:
- vale → shared etymology with "valley"
- acclivity → shared etymology with "incline"
so the village was located in a 'valley between two inclines/slopes'.
Here you may want to consider "gentle" by its antonyms like "harsh", "violent", "severe", etc. instead of learning what it colloquially means in this context. I.e. these slopes are not harsh/violent/severe, so they must not be treacherous slopes belonging to mountains, but something more approachable and mundane like hills. And indeed, "gentle" in this context refers to "gradual", as in a "gradual slope".
