What does it mean to coerce someone?

  1. To inspire with enthusiasm

  2. To persuade someone forcefully

  3. To inform someone subtly

  4. To entertain someone effectively

The correct answer is: To persuade someone forcefully

Coercing someone involves persuading or forcing them to act in a certain way, often against their will. This can occur through the use of threats, intimidation, or pressure, which means that the individual may feel they have no real choice but to comply. In the context of the options provided, the definition aligns clearly with the idea of forceful persuasion, capturing the essence of coercion as it removes free will and choice from the person being coerced. The other choices imply more benign or constructive interactions, such as inspiring enthusiasm, informing subtly, or entertaining effectively, none of which carry the same forceful connotation as coercing someone.
