implacable
의미: Impossible to appease, pacify, or satisfy; relentless and unyielding in hostility or determination. Describes opposition or forces that cannot be softened or turned aside.
Implacable conveys an absolute quality — an implacable enemy cannot be reasoned with; implacable opposition will not compromise. The word is stronger than 'determined' or 'resolute' because it implies that no amount of persuasion, concession, or effort will alter the stance. It appears frequently in diplomatic reporting, historical writing, and literary analysis, and collocates with 'opposition,' 'hostility,' 'enemy,' 'foe,' 'determination,' and 'force.' The word can be applied admiringly (implacable determination) or fearfully (implacable hostility).
