Define Mortify
What does shame mean?
All I heard was that it was embarrassing when there was so much embarrassment. I live in the United States.
MerriamWebster claims that there are three possible definitions of mortify:
Transitive verb
1. Abandoned: power, vitality or functionality. To destroy
give
3: Facing severe embarrassment and anger: embarrassment.
So I would say it's just a shame / shame and we use it to misuse fear.
Definition of shame
Literally, this does not mean accumulation but gangrene. Weaver, most often used symbolically, means very embarrassing or embarrassing. I am ashamed. Thus, medieval saints often killed meat, for example, denying its bodily needs. Gram meditates up to his neck while standing in cold water or avoiding scratching. The most common word is to turn to the frozen rock with fear.
I think what I just wrote applies to all English speaking countries, not just the United States.

What does it mean to be insulted? 3
Alas!
I'm from Germany and I'm trying to figure out what the word relegated really means. For example, when a person has abusive expressions on their face.
I get two possibilities: 1) it means shame 2) it can mean sick or paralyzed by fear.
So my question is: Which possibility is correct? Or maybe both are correct? Or does it depend on the country? Maybe the meanings are different in the UK and US or Australia / New Zealand? I don't know about that ... = (
Thanks in advance for your help!
I have only heard of the use of insults in cases of extreme embarrassment. I live in usa

So I would say it's just a shame / shame and we use it to say that fear is wrong.
Literally it means gangrene, not accumulation. However, it is often used as a symbol of extreme embarrassment or shame. Shame on you. In the Middle Ages, saints often killed meat, for example, to deny its physical needs. Chana meditates up to her neck while standing in cold water or avoiding scratching. As far as freezing in fear is concerned, the most common word for it was petrified, turned to stone.

Lulu is fine, both are fine. They use it in different ways to express each meaning. If a person has a lot in business then maybe it can be used to describe that person in the first sense. If anyone sees a bank stealing $ 300, they will use another definition to describe it.
Humans can say both! Around the English-speaking world! )
Both are correct.
