Enticement (dial.)
Definition
The act of enticing or alluring and its dynamic outcome; the dialectal process of tempting or baiting someone through flattering words, serving as an altered rural phonetic variant of the standard noun 'ademenire'. In isolated Transylvanian micro-dialects, it occasionally arose from a corruption of the noun 'adunare' regarding cattle gathering. It must not be confused with any modern compound verbal layout or typographical error.
