Answer 4

smouldering what? or smouldering with what?

smoudering is like what hot coals do. they crackle slightly, they don't move, they're calm but they have a nuanced menacing quality about them, a sort of aggression.

smouldering (for humans) is all in the posture and the eyes if we're talking bodywise or it's something you're about to do & you're very eager if it's a mental attitude.

it's usually said in connection to sex and sex appeal, but it' perfectly valid for people "smouldering with anger/rager/need/lust..."

or ... "her indifference was a cool, smouldering rejection which crept in cold waves of panic and horror suddenly down his back.
his immediate response was lust. a smouldering impotent beast that raged in his loins uselessly. it became a flaccid embarrasssing thing once the permanence of her regard settled in. that's when the anguish a deeply penetrating and all consuming madness took him and roasted him in smothering smouldering betrayal. She had sent him flowers. He looked that them a dejected rejected purposeless puppet. Nothing says goodbye like a wreath.

.. sorry, got abit carried away here!!

Answer 5

Using a campfire as an example. It is usually a term to describe a fire that hasn't extinguished itself. The embers are still active beneath the twigs which is why it is necessary to dump a bucket of water on a campfire as it can still ignite and become a roaring fire again.

Using the emotions of temper or love, it can mean that something is hidden underneath the surface and is heating up.

Hope this helps. Merry, Merry.
